Mark Burgess
TeamAddicts Sponsored PlayerI am TeamAddicts Sponsored Player Mark Burgess and this is my story of how I started playing cornhole. Some time in 2018, Derek Coffin called and asked me if I wanted to play some cornhole. There was a bring your own partner tournament that was a fundraiser and little experience, we managed to come in 2nd place. Wicked Cornhole was running a beginners game that was posted on Facebook and I thought it sounded like a great idea and a good excuse to get out of the house. I had a blast playing and what I really enjoyed were all the people I met. From that point, I was hooked and addicted to the game and the family atmosphere.

Rod Jara
TeamAddicts Sponsored PlayerI am TeamAddicts Sponsored Player Rod Jara and this is my story of how I started playing cornhole. I got started in cornhole in 2018 when my g/f's mom at the time used to bartend at the Lacey Elks. She told us about a cornhole league starting up and wanted to see if we were interested. Up to this point, I had maybe thrown 5 cornhole bags in my life at backyard BBQ’s. Needless to say, it was something completely new to us. Nevertheless, we joined the league as it was something new and social for us to do. My first season, I was BAD. If I landed 1 bag on the board out of 10 throws, I was happy. The league was run by some great people that are still close to us today. By the end of the 1st season i had developed some what of a flat bag and knew I wanted to give it another go. So we came back for our 2nd season. That's when I started learning more and applying more of my time to the game. I would ask everyone questions about how they threw, they would teach me how to stand, the hold, the release, etc. I really enjoyed it, even though I wasn't very good. By our 3rd season, I finished top 5 in our league and that's when i started playing in cornhole tournaments around NJ. I would partner up with guys from my own league. Everywhere I'd go, I'd get rocked. But i enjoyed playing and learning so I kept at it. I then joined the ACL and played in the competitive division for a year. I won numerous regionals in singles, until our director bumped me up to advanced in 2020. Covid then hit, and everything went virtual. That's when I would practice 5+ hours a day in my backyard. I LOVED practicing! I would take the fastest bags i had, all the way to the slowest bags, and i would make myself adjust to the conditions. The ACL then opened things up again and we started going to conferences and opens all around the country to compete against better competition. I now play in the advanced division and hope to work my way up to the PRO division soon.

Richard Bushway
NorthEast ConferenceI am ACL Pro Richard Bushway from the Northeast Conference and this is my story of how I became a professional cornhole player for the American Cornhole League. It all started some time in October 2017. A cousin of mine told me that they play a cornhole tournament on Wednesdays at the winners circle. I had no idea what cornhole was and ended up going after that I was hooked. Now you can see me play anywhere in the northeast.
