For tailgates, bar leagues & tournaments

Cornhole Scoreboard

Tap +1 or +3 each round and race to 21, with games won on the board. Keep score from your phone and show it on any TV beside the boards. No app, no beads to slide.

Powering leaderboards for thousands of people

The display beside the boards: each team's score toward 21, with games won underneath.

Built for How Cornhole Is Scored

+1, +3 and a race to 21, on a display you can read from the pitching box.

+1 and +3 Buttons

A bag on the board is 1 and a bag in the hole is 3, so the board has a button for each. Tap the net points for the team that won the round and the running total updates.

Race to 21, Then Games Won

Scores build up round by round toward 21. When a game ends, one tap gives it to the leader, resets the score to 0–0, and keeps games won on the display for best-of-three matches.

No Clock to Manage

Cornhole is played to points, not time, so the board shows only the score and games won. That keeps it readable from the pitching box.

Big Enough for the Backyard

Put the display link on a TV, tablet, or laptop beside the boards. Bold numbers read from 27 feet away, at a tailgate, a bar league, or a fundraiser.

Score From Your Phone

Keep score between rounds from your own phone, and undo is one tap when somebody miscounts. On Pro, a scorekeeper link lets a volunteer at each set of boards score from their own phone.

+1, +3 and a Race to 21

What is an online cornhole scoreboard?

An online cornhole scoreboard is a web page that keeps each team's running score toward 21 and the games they've won. You enter each round's points from your phone and the same link shows the score on any TV or tablet beside the boards.

With cancellation scoring, only the difference between the two teams scores each round, so the running total is the one thing players lose track of. The board keeps it for them.

Official boards are 2 by 4 feet with a 6-inch hole, and the boards sit 27 feet apart, front edge to front edge.

Frequently Asked Questions

Yes. The free plan gives you a live cornhole scoreboard with +1 and +3 buttons, games won and team names and colors. No credit card. Team logos, a display without the MakeTheBoard mark, and the transparent stream overlay come with Pro: $9 for a 7-day pass, or $24 a month.

A bag that lands and stays on the board is worth 1 point. A bag that goes through the hole is worth 3. Most leagues use cancellation scoring: after both teams throw their four bags, their points cancel and only the difference counts. If one team has 7 and the other has 4, the first team scores 3 for that round. The first team to reach 21 at the end of a round wins the game.

Work out the net points for the round and tap them in for the team that won it, using +3 and +1. A 3-point round is one tap of +3. If the bags cancel out exactly, nobody scores and you don't tap anything. Undo is one tap if you miscount.

Official rules from the ACL and ACA don't use a bust: the first team at 21 or more at the end of a round wins. Some backyard games send a team that goes over 21 back to 11 or 15. If you play that house rule, use the − button to take the team's score back down.

Yes. When someone reaches 21, tap End game: the leader is awarded the game, both scores go back to 0, and the board moves to the next game. Games won stay on the display for best-of-three matches.

Yes. Make one scoreboard per set of boards. On Pro, each one gets a scorekeeper link, so a volunteer can score from their own phone without an account. Then track who advances on a free cornhole bracket. Most tournaments run double elimination, and the bracket supports it. Players follow both from a QR code.

Yes. Open the display link on any smart TV, tablet or laptop and you get bold numbers readable from the pitching box. It's a digital cornhole scoreboard with no beads to slide and nothing to wire up.
