AMERICAN CORNHOLE LEAGUE PRO SHOOTOUTS... EVERYTHING YOU NEED TO KNOW!

The American Cornhole League sets the standards for the professional sport of cornhole. While they have several event categories within the organization, you may not be as familiar with the Pro-Shootouts and the Superhole events.

Pro-Shootouts are a series of 8 events that only ACL Pro players can compete in. They are spread throughout the professional cornhole league Season and hosted across the United States giving multiple opportunities to compete and qualify for the ACL Pro Shootout Championship. The Pro-Shootout series has a total prize pool of $250,000 with the Top Pro Singles players receiving $20,000 each and the Top Doubles Team receiving $50,000!

Each Pro-Shootout has 3 events that include Pro Men Singles, Pro Women Singles & Pro Doubles and is a 12 round single elimination tournament format. This means they battle it out for 12 rounds only. Whoever has the highest score at the end of the 12th round (if 21 is not reached before that) wins the game. The loser is knocked out of the shootout. The winners continue to play each other until 1 Pro is left standing for each category. The winners qualify to compete against the best of the best at the ACL Pro Shootout Championship at the end of the season! The ACL Pros must use ACL approved pro cornhole bags at these events.
