Cornhole fans can expect to see every world championship match from the ACO World Championships of Cornhole V streamed live online on Saturday, February 5th at http://www.kingofcornhole.com.

"We want to share ACO cornhole with the world," said Matthew Gray, Director of TV/Media Development. "We've done local television. We've done online videos. This is the next step in our development. With the help from Hometown Sports Television, we're excited to bring the ACO World Championships online and make it available to anyone."

ACO World Championships of Cornhole V will be held February 3rd-6th at the Horseshoe Hotel and Casino in Elizabeth, Indiana. There will be six world championships determined, including the featured ACO World Championship King of Cornhole match.

Approximately 140 players will enter the tournament to be crowned World Champion King of Cornhole. One of those players is four-time reigning King of Cornhole Matt Guy.
