$20,000 ACO Vidalia Cornhole Cup to be First Stop in 2012 ACO Masters Series Tour

Vidalia, Georgia is the kick off location for the American Cornhole Organization (ACO) cornhole season March 23 - 25th.

The ACO Vidalia Cornhole Cup - an ACO Masters Series Major - will have a $20,000 Purse Payout. The Tournament is scheduled for March 23 - 25th, 2012.  It is the first of four Majors planned for the 2012 season.

In its inaugural year, the ACO Vidalia Cornhole Cup promises to attract cornhole players and enthusiasts from around Georgia and neighboring states. "The Vidalia Cornhole Cup will be big. Pre registration has surpassed any previous events," said Frank Geers  American Cornhole President.

This event is open to cornhole players of all skill levels.

A player can enter the ACO Vidalia Cornhole Cup as a singles entrant, as a doubles entrant, or as a Crew - the best cornhole value.

A Crew can enter the $20,000 ACO Vidalia Cornhole Cup challenge for $250 ($62.50 per Crew member). A Crew is given the opportunity to participate in all four cash payout events.  These include: Luck of the Draw, Open Singles, Open Doubles, and Vidalia Cornhole Cup competition – a minimum of 8 guaranteed games for all Crew members.

The Crew competition is points-based concept developed exclusively by the ACO.  A Crew consists of four cornhole players accumulating points based on each player's finish in the Open Singles and each of the teams finish in the Open Doubles. The Crew with the lowest overall point total wins the coveted ACO Vidalia Cornhole Cup.
