I’ve had some thoughts lately about the different paths within cornhole, and I think this is worth saying.

It’s probably pretty obvious that my main focus is the ACO. I’m proud to be a big part of DFB, I want to continue developing on the broadcast/commentary side, and I’m hoping to become even more involved with the ACO as a whole. I traveled to several ACO events during my first full season and plan on doing even more this year.

But being invested in the ACO doesn’t mean I’m against the ACL or what they’re doing.

That’s actually one of the things I love about cornhole: there’s room for everybody. Some players compete in both organizations. Some find their home in one or the other. Some are chasing the highest levels of competition, while others just want to throw bags locally with good people. There are great things happening in both.

Last season I only played one ACL event while competing in several ACO events, but this year I plan to be more involved with ACL events locally as well. That’s where a lot of my friends play, where people I’ve helped introduce to the game are finding their own path, and where there are opportunities for me to support the growth of the game in my own community.

I’ve had a lot of people support me, encourage me and help me find my place in cornhole. I want to do the same for others.

ACO is where I’m planting my flag, but cornhole is bigger than any one organization.

I’m excited to support the ACO, DFB, the ACL,BG and, most importantly, the people who make this game what it is. Throw where you want to throw. Support who you want to support. Just keep growing the game. 🎯
