We had a small turnout of just 22 players for the first round of the Canadian Cornhole Championships but they were some of the best in the country!
Advanced BYOP
The day started off with a Bring Your Own Partner round robin which had the JC Cornhole team of Jamie Cowan and Steve Poll go undefeated to take the #1 seed.
Teams from all over Ontario battled it out in the double elimination playoff bracket which ended with a battle between JC Cornhole and team Blue Bags of Cory Golbeck and Matt Pleil.
Team Blue Bags would end up winning the first tournament of the day. With JC Cornhole in second and Team Zedd of Zsolt Olah and Dave Holman in third.
Advanced Singles
Next up was the Advanced Singles bracket. The first round would see many teammates end up battling each other, but in the finals it was Dave Holman of London, ON from the winners bracket vs. Cory Golbeck of Waterloo, ON who worked his was from a first round loss all the way to the finals.
Cory won the first game 21-9 forcing a second tournament deciding match, which he also went on to win 21-8. Dave would finish second with Kevin Dugal of London, ON in third.
Advanced Blind Draw
The final tournament of the day was a Blind Draw Doubles, where players would be team up with another random player from the tournament.
The drawing set up 7 very even competitive team each with a chance to win. But it was the team of Cory Golbeck and Richard Wright double dipping to beat Kim Poll and Joe Stevenson in two exciting final games.
