Cornhole

Getting Started

Scan the QR code or tap the NFC tag to open this app on your phone or tablet. No login or download required — you're ready to play instantly.

Setup

1. Choose your game mode — 1v1 Singles or 2v2 Doubles.
2. Optionally enter team names (defaults to Red Team / Blue Team if left blank).
3. Tap START GAME. The app randomly picks who throws first.

Scoring Each Inning

After all bags are thrown, use the + / − buttons to enter how many Cornholes (in the hole) and Woodies (on the board) each team scored.

• Each team can have a maximum of 4 bags total per inning — the steppers enforce this automatically.
• The Cancellation result box shows you in real-time who will score and by how much before you confirm.
• Tap END INNING to lock in the scores and advance to the next inning.

Reading the Scoreboard

• The big numbers at the top are each team's running total.
• The colored tag in the inning bar shows which team throws first this inning.
• The Inning History table at the bottom tracks every inning — raw scores, net points, and running totals.

Winning & Ending the Game

The app automatically detects when a team reaches or exceeds 21 points at the end of an inning and shows the final results screen. If it's a tie at 21+, the app flags it for a Sudden Death round.

New Game / Play Again

• Play Again — keeps the same team names and resets all scores.
• New Game — returns to the setup screen so you can pick new teams and mode.

Object of the Game

Be the first team to reach or exceed 21 points at the end of an inning. Cornhole is played with two boards placed 27 feet apart and 8 bags — 4 per team in contrasting colors.

Players & Format

• Singles (1v1): One player at each end. Each player throws all 4 of their bags per inning from the same side.
• Doubles (2v2): Teams of two. Teammates stand at opposite ends and throw toward each other. Each player throws 2 bags per inning.
• Players alternate throws with their opponent — Red, Blue, Red, Blue — until all bags are pitched.

Scoring

Cancellation Scoring

Only one team can score per inning. Each team's raw inning points cancel out the other's — the team with the higher total scores only the difference.

• Example: Red scores 7 raw points, Blue scores 4. Red earns 3 points (7 − 4) for the inning. Blue earns nothing.
• If both teams score the same raw total, it's a push — neither team scores that inning.

Inning Order

• The team that scored points in the previous inning throws first in the next inning.
• If the inning was a push (no score), the same team that went first goes first again.
• This app tracks and displays who goes first automatically.

Winning

The first team to reach or exceed 21 points at the conclusion of a full inning wins. You do not have to land exactly on 21 — going over is fine.

• If both teams reach 21+ in the same inning, the team with the higher total wins.
• If still tied, play a Sudden Death inning — one throw each, cancellation scoring, highest net score wins. Repeat until broken.

Fouls & Dead Bags

• Players must stay behind the front edge of their board (the foul line) when throwing.
• A bag that crosses the foul line is a foul bag — worth 0 points, remove it from play.
• A bag that hits the ground before the board is a dead bag — worth 0 points, remove it from play immediately.
• No bag may be moved before scoring is determined at the end of the inning.
