Algoma Steel employee took up the game on a recreational basis, and is now the first American Cornhole League (ACL) Canada professional from northern Ontario
The Sault’s Brett Davie has become the first American Cornhole League Canada professional from northern Ontario.
Players get three points for a bag in the hole and one point for each bag on the board. A cornhole match can last for a few minutes while other matches can last up to an hour until one player reaches 21 points. Matches can include single players or doubles. “It can become serious. Obviously you want to outscore your opponent like in any other sport and win. You want to try and block your opponent from putting his bag in the hole, shoot your bag around his or shoot yours over it,” Davie said.
“It’s a great sport. If you join a league it makes you feel like part of a community. Everyone there is super awesome, super friendly so you make really good friends and you always have a good time. The cornhole community across Canada, everyone is so awesome and you make lifetime friends. It makes you feel part of something that’s way bigger than yourself,” Davie said.
