Policies

Terms of Service

Last updated: November 8, 2026

These terms apply when you use uclcornhole.com, create a UCL player profile, buy a membership or merchandise, or take part in a United Cornhole League (UCL) sanctioned event. UCL is operated by United Cornhole League, LLC, a Wyoming limited liability company. By doing any of these, you agree to these terms, the Refund Policy and the Privacy Policy. If you don't agree, please don't use the site or join UCL events.

1. Who can join

You must be 18 or older to create an account or buy a membership on your own.
Players under 18 may join only with a parent or legal guardian, who creates or authorizes the account, accepts these terms on the player's behalf and is responsible for the player's participation.

2. Your account and player profile

Keep one account per player and give accurate information, including your name, home state and any rating history from other leagues.
You are responsible for activity on your account. Tell us right away at info@uclcornhole.com if you think someone else has used it.
Your name, conference, classification, results, statistics and standings are part of competitive play and are shown publicly on the site and in UCL media.

3. Player memberships

UCL offers a Conference membership ($49.99) and a National membership ($99.99). Players under 18 on January 1 of the season receive a free junior membership with National membership benefits. There are no family or group rates. Memberships are on sale now through Scoreholio.
Each membership covers one season, and a new membership is needed for each season. The 2027 inaugural season runs January 1 to June 30, 2027, and a membership bought for it ends June 30, 2027. The first full season, September 1, 2027 to June 30, 2028, needs a new membership. After that, each membership covers one season, September 1 to June 30. A membership ends on the last day of its season, whatever date you joined.
A current membership is needed to earn ranking points, appear in standings and enter Conference Signature Events, Conference Championships and other events above the Local level. Non-members may play Local events but earn no points.
Benefits are described on the Membership page and in the UCL Players & League Guide. UCL may change membership prices or benefits for future seasons; changes do not affect a season you have already paid for.
Memberships are personal and cannot be transferred, sold or shared. Refunds follow the Refund Policy.

4. Directors

Tournament directors agree to the UCL Director Guide and the signed Director Agreement, which govern membership commission, event standards, results reporting and discipline. Being a UCL director does not grant an exclusive territory, ownership in UCL or the right to host a particular event.

5. Competition rules, rankings and results

UCL events follow the UCL Official Rules and the UCL Players & League Guide, including classifications, points, tie-breakers and Pro qualification rules.
Event directors and officials run each event and may make decisions on the day, including on equipment challenges, formats and forfeits.
Results are recorded in Scoreholio. UCL may correct standings, points or classifications when results are wrong, late or falsified.
Points, rankings, classifications and Pro status are competitive records kept by UCL. They have no cash value and cannot be transferred.
From September 1, 2027, UCL-stamped bags on the Approved Bag List are required at every conference-run event.

6. Conduct and discipline

Everyone at UCL events and in UCL online spaces must follow the UCL Player and Fan Code of Conduct.
Cheating, results manipulation, equipment tampering, harassment, threats, violence and similar conduct may lead to forfeits, suspension, loss of points or Pro status, or a ban, without a refund.
Directors may warn, forfeit or refuse entry to a player at their event. Suspensions beyond an event and bans are decided by UCL in writing.
You may appeal a suspension or ban in writing to a three-person UCL appeals panel. An appeal requires a $100 deposit, refunded if the appeal succeeds in whole or in part.

7. Junior players

Guardian consent is required for every player under 18, and UCL's junior safeguarding policy applies at every event.
Players under 18 on January 1 of the season may earn Junior Pro status, with a parent or guardian's consent.
Juniors play in UCL NEXT. No betting is ever offered on any match that includes a minor. Safeguarding concerns go to admin@uclcornhole.com.

8. Entry fees, payouts and prizes

Entry fees, payouts and refund rules are published before registration for each event. Local event payouts are set by the director.
UCL or the event director may hold prize money while equipment is inspected or a result is disputed.
You are responsible for any taxes on prize money and for providing tax information when required.

9. Photos, video and livestreams

UCL events may be photographed, filmed and livestreamed. By taking part in or attending a UCL event, you allow UCL and its partners to record and use your name, image, voice and results in event coverage, broadcasts and promotion of UCL, without payment. Guardians give this permission for junior players and may contact us to limit how a junior's image is used.

10. Purchases

Prices are in US dollars and may change before you buy. We may cancel an order if a product is unavailable or the price was listed in error, and we refund any amount charged.
Returns and refunds follow the Refund Policy.

11. UCL names, logos and content

UCL™, UCL NEXT™, the UCL logo, conference names, the UCL bag stamp and site content belong to United Cornhole League, LLC or its licensors. You may share links and standings for personal, non-commercial use. Any other use, including on apparel, equipment or event promotion, needs UCL's written permission or an approved license.

12. Risk of participation

Cornhole is a physical activity, and events take place at venues UCL does not own or control. You take part at your own risk and are responsible for your own health, belongings and conduct. You may be asked to sign an event waiver before playing.

13. Disclaimers and limits on liability

The site, standings and UCL services are provided as available. We work to keep results and standings accurate but cannot promise they are error-free or uninterrupted.
To the extent the law allows, UCL is not liable for indirect or consequential losses, and UCL's total liability to you is limited to the amount you paid UCL in the 12 months before the claim.

14. Ending your account

You may close your account at any time by emailing info@uclcornhole.com. UCL may suspend or close an account that breaks these terms or the Code of Conduct. Refunds, if any, follow the Refund Policy.

15. Changes to these terms

We may update these terms. We will post the new version on this page with a new date, and changes that materially affect members will be announced by email or on the site before they take effect.

16. Governing law and disputes

These terms are governed by the laws of the State of California. Before starting any legal claim, please contact us so we can try to resolve the issue informally within 30 days.
