ACL SIGNATURE #3 | OPEN #14

NOCO Sports | Windsor, CO


Signature 3 and Open 14

Join us in Windsor for Signature #3 and Open #14!

This Classic Format event is composed of all the Open events you have come to enjoy, as well as the third set of points-earning events for the 2025 ACL Pro Season.

The world’s top players continue to battle it out in two main events: Pro Singles and Pro Doubles. Everyone is curious to see if the current #1s stay at the top, and who will get their piece of $50,000! Playing down to the Final 4, matches will culminate Sunday on our livestream court.

Be sure to follow along at home using the broadcast schedule below and FanZone!

While the Pros are battling it out to see who will make it to the big stage, we will be offering two featured events for anyone not eligible for Pro events: Open Doubles and Open Singles. We will also offer additional tournaments such as Open Singles for Women, Seniors, Juniors, College & High School Doubles and a USA Doubles Qualifier.

In your non-cornhole time, be sure to check out everything beautiful Fort Collins has to offer!

Make sure to get your weekend started right with Divisional Blind Draws Friday night. You might get lucky and draw yourself a Pro!

We look forward to seeing you at NOCO Sports!
