TOURNAMENT FORMATS
CPI & AGE LIMITS
What is the Cornhole Performance Index (CPI)?
CPI is the official ACL player rating scale, a dynamic single number ranging from 1 (lowest) to 12 (highest). It goes far beyond traditional skill levels by providing a comprehensive and accurate reflection of your performance.
What If I Don’t Have an Established CPI?
If you're a new player or do not have an official ACL CPI yet, don't worry! You can still find the right tier for competition. Use the following guidelines to determine where you should start:
-
Use Your Points Per Round (PPR) as a Guide:Â If you have a recent average PPR from other events, you can use it to gauge your skill level. It's common for a player's official CPI to be slightly lower than their average PPR, so keep that in mind when choosing a tier.
-
Brand-New Player? If you are completely new to competitive cornhole, you can expect to fit into a lower CPI tier. A good starting point would be a division with a max CPI of around 5.0.
-
Players with Local Experience: If you have some experience playing in local events, you may be better suited for a higher tier. You could expect to be competitive in a division with a max CPI of 5.0-7.0.
-
Still unsure? For early registration, please use the Contact Us form to submit your questions. You may also register on-site by arriving at least one hour before the event start time to discuss your registration with the Tournament Director.
