Central Connecticut Cornhole regional sets busy one-day ACL points race
Central Connecticut Cornhole packed four divisions and a blind draw into one Sunday stop, with ACL points and cash on the line at The Truck Bar 2.
Central Connecticut Cornhole turned ACL Regional #8 into a fast-moving one-day ladder on Sunday, June 28, 2026, at The Truck Bar 2 in Berlin, Connecticut, with Tier 3, Tier 4 and Tier 1 divisions all getting their own windows to chase points and payout. The format gave lower-tier and top-tier players separate paths through the bracket, then finished with a combined blind draw for anyone still on site.
The day opened with Tier 3 and Tier 4 doubles, which checked in at 9:30 a.m. and started at 10:00 a.m. Tier 3 and Tier 4 singles followed with a 11:30 a.m. check-in and noon start. Later, Tier 1 doubles checked in at 10:30 a.m. and started at 11:00 a.m., before Tier 1 singles took over at 1:30 p.m. with a 2:00 p.m. start. Both doubles and singles were straight double-elimination tournaments, a format that kept the action moving while still giving players room to recover from an early loss.
The stop carried the label of an ACL Points Event, which mattered because regional results feed directly into season standings. The American Cornhole League says registering creates a profile that allows players to compete for ACL points, and regional events are worth 1,200 points. For players looking to make up ground or protect position, that made a single Sunday in Berlin more than a local stopover.
The Truck Bar’s Berlin location gave the event the space it needed. The venue says its indoor cornhole field has 10 lanes, and its FAQ says ACL events there are official league competitions that require ACL membership to compete. The event page also said every participant was guaranteed a minimum of four games, while cash prizes went only to the top scorers. Players wearing Central Connecticut Cornhole jerseys also received a $5 discount on entry fees, a small but clear push to build a visible league identity around the regional.
That mix of structure and access is what makes Berlin notable on the ACL calendar right now: a compact regional that rewarded serious play, kept casual value in the format, and gave multiple divisions a realistic shot at points, games and money in one day.
