American Cornhole Organization Expands Membership Tiers and Digital Access for Players Worldwide

Symmes Township, Ohio – September 21, 2026 – PRESSADVANTAGE –

The American Cornhole Organization | ACO, the official governing body for the sport of cornhole since 2005, has outlined an updated two-tier membership structure designed to connect players of all skill levels to sanctioned competition, world rankings, and a growing global community.

The structure includes a free starter option and a premium worlds tier. Each level offers a different set of benefits, ranging from discounted entry fees at ACO Majors to eligibility for payouts, prizes, and trophies. Players who compete under the paid tier can also earn placement in the ACO World Standings, which track the top competitors in every division throughout the season based on results across sanctioned, points-earning tournaments.

An American Cornhole Membership | ACO connects individuals to a season-long calendar of events that includes the ACO Majors Tour, ACO Regionals, ACO State Championships, the ACO Slyder Cup, and the ACO World Championships of Cornhole. Membership also provides access to exclusive clubs, official rules used at every sanctioned event, and a network of players spanning the United States and beyond.

New members are guided through a structured onboarding process that includes setting up a Scoreholio account, the platform used for ranking and scoring across the organization. The process also directs newcomers to the players guide, and a learning center covering the fundamentals of the sport, membership benefits, and official rules.

“The tiered approach exists so that a first-time player and a seasoned competitor can both find a place within the same community,” said Frank Geers ACO Founder,. “A free entry point lets someone try sanctioned play, and the paid tier opens the door to world rankings and event payouts as commitment grows.”

Alongside the membership framework, the organization continues to grow its digital presence. The American Cornhole Youtube Channel 24/7 carries live streams of tournaments, highlights from past events, and featured full matches from recent seasons. The channel currently hosts more than 1,100 videos and serves a subscriber base of roughly 11,600, offering fans and prospective members a way to follow competition throughout the year.

Geers noted that the organization’s investment in streaming reflects how the sport is consumed today. “Live coverage and archived matches give the community a way to study the game and stay connected between events,” he said. “That visibility supports players at every level and helps new members understand what sanctioned competition looks like before they ever step up to a board.”

The organization also maintains an online shop offering certified boards, approved cornhole bags, and official gear, and it partners with bag manufacturers worldwide whose products are featured in sanctioned events.

The American Cornhole Organization is headquartered in Camp Dennison, Ohio, and has served as the sport’s governing body since 2005. It organizes sanctioned tournaments, publishes the official rules of cornhole, maintains world standings, endorses certified equipment, and operates a digital network spanning streaming, a podcast, and a magazine.
