INTRODUCING ACL HIGH SCHOOL CORNHOLE
Designed for high school students, ACL High School was created for school districts to create a program that will help their students learn to play the sport of cornhole locally within their schools/districts or nationally at the ACL National High School Cornhole Championships where they can win money to be used to develop cornhole programs within their schools and districts. Winning teams could also be eligible to win travel funds for future events.

Now in the fourth year of the National High School Cornhole Championship, the NHSCC crowns the best high school players and teams from around the country. It provides seed money to schools and athletic departments to develop cornhole programs within their district and the open format allows for any size high school to participate. The ACL encourages high schools to integrate cornhole into their physical education classes and to develop clubs, intramural or interscholastic programs.
