Brown Street Ballers Break Up.

The world renowned Cornhole competitive demonstration squad, The Brown Street Ballers have decided to break up the team.  After wowing spectators and opponents alike in the United Social Sports leagues, the famed ambassadors of the game have decided to break apart like Voltron after slaying the robobeasts.  For the good of the game.

What's next for this intrepid band of cornholing enthusiasts?  The Brown Street Cornhole League of course.

The Ballers have often said there is enough interest in the game among friends who run in the same social circles to support a robust league of cornhole play.  This summer, Brown Street Ballers alumni will organize, plan, and host a short trial season. If the mini season is a success, then we will look at scaling up the league in terms of length of season and number of teams. We could look at trophies & t-shirts and all the other trappings of established and successful social sporting networks.

For now, we have to set up the structure of the league, the rules we'll play by and the schedule. The rough outlines of those things are addressed in subsequent posts  These suggestions are based on conversations had among various Ballers.  Please add your two cents in the comment section.  When we have reached a consensus, we'll move forward with games & tourneys.  

The Question: Would you be able to commit to playing in a cornhole league one night a week for 5 or 6 weeks in July?

  2. I know that I wrote this last night, but when I just saw the headline, i was like What What What?! Then I remembered that I wrote something like Voltron coming apart, and i was less distraught.

  3. Yeah I think you meant break up as in split into many cornhole machines, maybe not becoming more than the sum of our parts, but allowing more cornhole coverage. If a giant cornhole team ever challenges us we can reassemble at any time. Only we'll be more powerful than one could imagine.
