Keep score properly
Cornhole uses cancellation scoring, which is easy to follow and surprisingly easy to lose track of by the third round. This sheet has a column for each side's round total and a running score, with the point values and a worked example printed on it.

Cancellation scoring. Total each side for the round, subtract the smaller from the larger, and write the difference in the Round column of the side that had more. The other side writes 0. Add it to their running total.
Worked example. Side A lands one in the hole and two on the board, so 5. Side B lands three on the board, so 3. Subtract 3 from 5: Side A scores 2 this round, Side B scores 0.
Also worth knowing. Boards go 8.23m apart, front edge to front edge. Stepping past the front edge is a foul and the throw does not count. The side that scored last round throws first.
