Each bag on the box = 1 point
Each bag in the hole = 3 points
Any bags touching the ground or “bounced” onto the box do not count and are to be removed prior to the next bag being thrown by the opposing team.
Total points for each team are calculated using only those points that were not canceled out.
-Example:
Team 1 throws 1 bag in the hole and 3 bags land on the box for a total of 6 points;
Team 2 throws 1 bag in the hole and 2 bags land on the box for a total of 5 points;
Then Team 1 receives 1 point for that round.
The team who scores last will have the first throw of the next round.
A score of 21 points or more will be declared the winner. A tie will require extra innings until a winner is decided. All games go to 21 or more to win. Scorekeepers and judges will be walking around to aid at any time.
