Michigan Cornhole League (MCL) has named Caesars Sportsbook as its exclusive title sponsor, just prior to the start of the league’s Spring 2022 season.
One of the leaders in the newly regulated Michigan sports betting market, Caesars Sportsbook has been steadily expanding its local presence in the Mitten State. Just three weeks ago, it announced an exclusive multi-year sports betting and iGaming partnership with Michigan State University and now Caesars will also serve as the title sponsor of weekly local MCL events.
All registered Caesars users will be eligible to enter monthly regional and state events, and a brand new Caesars Sportsbook Tournament of Champions will be introduced as a result of the partnership.
The new event on the schedule will allow Caesars Sportsbook customers and Caesars Rewards members to participate in a series of preliminary events at a number of the most popular cornhole venues across the state between February 5 and March 26, 2022.
The final tournament will be hosted at the Turtle Creek Casino & Hotel over the weekend of March 26th and will pay out prizes worth a total of $25,000.
“We’re excited to partner with Caesars Sportsbook to offer a new competitive statewide league format,” said MCL State Director Jason Duflo. “Players can join, have a great time and compete at a level suitable to their skills in some of Michigan’s premier venues, culminating with a state finale to name a champion.”
The *new partnership will be good for business owners across the state of Michigan, who will see increased patron visits for the various MCL events. The league will also be hosting special events leading up to major Michigan State University and University of Michigan sporting events.
Caesars Sportsbook is also offering a spectacular welcome offer for all cornhole fans who join up with them. A welcome offer worth $300 in free bets is available for all new customers who join using promo code MCL300 and deposit and wager $20 in real money.
What is Cornhole?
Cornhole is a game that has evolved from a backyard past-time of throwing a sack of corn into a hole in a wooden board into a proper sport.
Michigan is one of the states where cornhole has achieved the greatest popularity, but the game is widespread across the US, with professional leagues like the American Cornhole League taking the game all the way to ESPN broadcasts.
At the end of the day, cornhole is meant to be fun for everyone and it is a game more about bonding and friendship than competitiveness. For that reason, the MCL aims to bring together players of all skill levels and allow everyone to compete on an equal footing.
The League has now partnered with Caesars to make the sport even more appealing through the valuable rewards that will be paid out to the winners, as well as the know-how and technology that Caesars bring with them.
Participating in MCL events will now give players even more incentives to play and perform at their top level, while also meeting new people and enjoying fun outdoor weekends with groups of easy-going individuals.
All of this will be culminating in valuable monthly and seasonal events that will, not only give away thousands of dollars in prize money, but also crown state champions with all the bragging rights that come with the title.
