Cornhole tournament to be next weekend in Stockton

STOCKTON — The California Cornhole Association will host the Best in the West III Cornhole Tournament at the Stockton Arena located at 248 W. Fremont St. in Stockton, on June 28 through June 30.

Participants and guests can enjoy the entire weekend or whichever event is most suited to them.

More than 16 groups throughout California have already registered to participate.

Doors for the tournament will open at 4 p.m. on Friday. Admission for the general public and for competitors is $5 per day per person.

Friday begins with a skills course, which is a challenge course with at least six different types of cornhole shots. Scored like a regular cornhole game, people can compete daily to try and get the highest score for the day. The player with the highest skills course score each day will get half of the pot for that day.

Skills competitions will continue throughout the weekend including women’s doubles, open blind draw, advanced, competitive, and social.

Competitions for juniors are available including junior singles, crew cup; and ten space long shot competition.

The Cornhole Expo will be held on Saturday on the concourse level of the arena. Different cornhole groups and leagues from all over the region will be present as well as event sponsors, who will be available to meet and share their passion for the game.
