How to Start a Cornhole League

Start a cornhole league with BagTrax. Create public or private leagues, invite players, track standings, and manage your season.

Chapter
06

A league turns casual games into a season. Regular matchups, tracked standings, and a reason to care about every bag. Here's how to set one up in BagTrax.

1. Create the League

Go to Leagues → New. Pick a name and set the visibility: public (anyone can find and join) or private (invite-only with a join code). League creation requires BagTrax Pro.

2. Invite Players

Public leagues: share the link. Players join from the browse directory.

Private leagues: send the join code to your group. Text it, post it in your group chat, tape it to the bar wall. Players enter the code and they're in.

3. Play Games

League members score games through BagTrax like normal. Every completed game between league members counts toward standings. Wins, losses, and point differential update automatically.

4. Track Standings

The league page shows current standings: record, point differential, and individual player stats within the league. No spreadsheets. No manual entry. Score the game and it's done.

5. Run a Season

Define your season however you want. Weekly league nights at the bar. Monthly tournaments. A full summer season. BagTrax tracks everything from the first throw to the last.

Pricing

The league creator needs Pro ($5/mo). Every player who joins — free. No per-player fees. No limits on league size.
