Multiplex, a global construction company, with bases in Britain, the Middle East, India, and Australia, having 50,000 plus workers worldwide, committed to a very special goal.
The goal started as a whim. A member of the Multiplex Management Team in Australia saw a Board and Bag Tossing Game on TV and thought the game would be a great way for Multiplex employees to connect. Considering the number of different disciplines in the company, it seemed to be a way to break down boundaries, and have fun.
With no knowledge of the game of Cornhole, Multiplex Australia reached out to the Governing Body of the Sport of Cornhole, the ACO, in the USA for information and direction on playing the sport.
With the help of one of its local contractors, Multiplex had cornhole boards made to specs, and called on the ACO, in the States, to ship ACO regulation cornhole bags and ACO Sport Cornhole Rules to them.
The concept took hold. Men and women both were getting involved. Cornhole was played on building tops, open construction areas, inside buildings, regardless of the environment; Multiplex was practicing a new sport – cornhole.
Soon Multiplex Australia was having competitions in many parts of Australia. Players were not only enjoying the social benefits of cornhole, but were improving their skills. The goal now was to get to America for the ACO World Championships of Cornhole in July, 2018.
Within several months, the interest of cornhole grew from not knowing anything about cornhole to genuine enthusiasm for the sport and a quest for the ACO Crown.
After a multitude of tournaments and competitive fun, Multiplex has chosen eight of the best cornhole players to represent it at the ACO World Championships of Cornhole 13 in 2018. The competition will be held in Montgomery Alabama, July 24-28 at the Cramton Bowl.
