8 Essentials For Your Next Cornhole Tournament:

Prepare For VICTORY!


8 Essentials For Your Next Cornhole Tournament

Participating in a cornhole tournament is an exciting opportunity to showcase as well as improve your skills, challenge yourself, and connect with others who love cornhole as much as you do. It's crucial to come prepared with the right tools and mindset to conquer the competition. Let's review some of the essential items and strategies that can help you excel in your next cornhole tournament. From equipment and strategy to mental preparation, these essentials will have you ready to step up to the boards with confidence and aim for victory.

ACL Cornhole Bags:

Investing in a set of high-quality ACL cornhole bags is the first step toward tournament success. By using ACL Stamped Cornhole Bags, you can be confident that your bags meet the regulation standards. Different playing conditions may require different bags, so having a variety of options can give you a competitive edge.


PRO Cornhole Boards:

Practice on pro cornhole boards that closely resemble the ones used in the tournament. Familiarize yourself with the board's surface, slickness, and overall feel. This practice can help you adjust your throws and strategies accordingly, improving your performance on tournament day.



Comfortable Attire & Footwear:

Comfort is key during a tournament. Many players choose to wear a cornhole jersey by their favorite cornhole company or their league. Opt for comfortable clothing that allows for a full range of movement. Choose comfortable footwear that provides stability and grip to help you maintain balance and execute shots effectively.

Strategic Warm-Up:

If you are allowed to, arrive early to the tournament venue to get some time on the boards to warm-up & test board conditions. Warming up can help you feel more confident and mentally prepared.


Mental Preparation:

Tournaments can be mentally demanding. Practice techniques such as visualization and deep breathing to help manage nervousness and maintain focus. Remind yourself to have fun & enjoy the experience.


Game Play & Strategy:

Develop a strategic game plan based on who you are playing against. If you know their play style, use their strengths and weaknesses to your advantage. They always throw up the middle? Stick a blocker bag in front of the hole that! Having the ability to adapt based on your opponent already gives you the upper hand.

Sportsmanship:

Maintain a positive attitude and display good sportsmanship throughout the tournament. Every game is a learning opportunity. Win or lose, approaching each match with respect reflects well on you as a player and any company or league you represent.


Additional Equipment:

Depending on the venue, you may consider bringing a folding chair, sunscreen, bottled water and any other items that contribute to your comfort during downtime between matches.



Tournaments are the ultimate test of your cornhole skills. Equipping yourself with ACL cornhole bags, pro cornhole boards, comfortable attire, and the right mindset gives you the edge you need to face the competition with confidence. So, gear up, show out and have fun in your next tournament!
