General Rules
To determine which team tosses first please use the “rock, paper, scissors” methodology. After that, the player who goes first is the one player that most recently scored.
The first side of contestants alternate tossing their corn bags until they have thrown all four bags, then the remaining contestant (tossing from the other corn hole platform) continue to alternate in the same manner until all four bags are delivered and the inning completed.
One contestant from each team shall be at each end of the court. When contestants are tossing their bags, the contestants at the other end shall be well behind & to the side of pitcher’s box (for their own safety).
