2026 Cornhole Season Details

Special Olympics has launched a new sport - Cornhole - and the Blazing Stars are all in! Cornhole (also known as Bags or Bean Bag Toss) , is a popular lawn game where players throw bean bags at a raised wooden board with a hole at the far end. The goal is to score points by tossing a bean bag through the hole.

Standard size Cornhole boards are 2 by 4 foot with standard bags filled with beans. Athletes will be able to participate in one of two distances – boards 27 feet apart or 18 feet apart.
