   Cornhole (also known regionally as sack toss, or bags) is a lawn game popular in North America in which players or teams take turns throwing fabric bean bags at an inclined board with a hole in its far end. The goal of the game is to score points by either landing a bag on the board (one point) or putting a bag through the hole (three points).

   Cornhole, sometimes called corn toss, bean bag toss, or baggo, is a lawn game popular in America. In this game, two teams throw bean bags into the holes of a goal board positioned on the ground to score points. With a few supplies and tools, you can make a

   You'll need two sets of bean bags, with each set having four bags apiece. It's a good idea to choose two colors for your bean bags, one color for each team. This way, you can easily differentiate teams. Additionally, each team must have one goal board per team.

   Official Cornhole goal boards are 2 by 4 feet (0.61 by 1.22 m), with a hole 6 inches (15.24 cm) wide centered 9 inches (22.9 cm) from the top of the board. Larger or smaller boards might not work as well.

   Bean bags larger or smaller than 6 inches by 6 inches (15.24 cm by 15.24 cm) may make the game too difficult or too easy.

   You can frequently find and buy pre-made Cornhole games at general retailers, sports stores, and sporting goods stores.

   Team goals should be set up on level ground opposite from each other. The front of each goal should be 27 feet (8.2 m) apart from the other. The goal hole of each board should be positioned away from the opposing board.

   Decide which team throws first.

   Now that you've got your teams assembled and the rules are explained, you're ready to start playing. Flip a coin to determine the team that throws first. After that, players should take their position beside or behind their goal board, alternating throws between teams.

   If you lack a coin, you can play

   to determine the starting team instead.

   Throw bean bags to score points.

   Following the rules carefully so as not to lose points to foul bags, throw your bags at the other team's goal board. Experiment with different underhand throws to find one that works best for you.

   Aim for the front of the board.

   Even though the three-point hole is toward the back of the board, throwing at the front of the board improves your chances of sliding a bag into the hole or landing one on the board for a single point. When aiming for the back of the board, it's easy to overthrow and get no points at all.

   Landing bags on the goal board will create obstacles for your opponent. This can be a useful tactic for blocking points.

   Put a spin on the bags you throw.

   Hold your bean bag so it is flat in your hand. When you throw, keep your wrist straight and use your fingers to create lateral spin, much like a Frisbee. This will give your bag a better chance of sliding into the hole for three points.

   As you release the bag, allow your index and middle fingers to stay in contact with the bag slightly longer than the others to help generate spin.
