I am Brad Powers, ACL Pro from the Atlantic Conference and this is my story of how I started playing cornhole.

Tammy Williams

I am Tammy Williams ACO Pro from the Mid-Atlantic Conference and this is how I became a professional cornhole player for the American Cornhole Organization. I began practicing with my husband, Jr Williams, while he was getting ready to attend the ACO Worlds Championships, from there I started playing in some blind draws and then would play a few tournaments if someone needed a partner. When I decided to play competitively I began playing only the women’s division the first year. Then the next year I began playing all divisions and been playing strong since.

Jimmy Youmans

I am ACL Pro Jimmy Youmans from the Northeast Conference and this is my story of how I became a professional cornhole player for the American Cornhole League. I was first introduced to Cornhole at a backyard party and of course, I liked it and it turned out that Pat Knapp had a league by me.

Matthew Morton

I'm 17 years old and started playing cornhole in Driver, VA with my dad when I was 11. We played $2 blind draws for fun with all the money going to charity. I loved playing and it gave me and my dad a chance to spend a lot of time together so we started going to different places for blind draws. After I started doing well, we started playing in the organized leagues and traveling for some bigger tournaments. I eventually decided to become an ACL Pro last season so I could play regularly against the best competition in the world.

I had a great year in my first season as an ACL Pro, with some really great finishes and getting to appear on ESPNs first ever live broadcast of an ESPN event in the Pro Doubles World Championships. I’m looking forward to another great season in 2020!
