Abstract

A method of stabilizing a cornhole board on a support surface, comprising providing a cornhole board including an inclined board have a front, a rear, and a top with a target hole, one or more rear supports that support the rear of the inclined board at a height above the front of the board, and one or front supports that support the front of the inclined board; providing one or more stabilizing units for the one or more front supports that support the front of the inclined board and the one or more rear supports that support the rear of the inclined board, wherein the one or more one or more stabilizing units include one or more adhesion members that adhere to and stabilize the cornhole board relative to the support surface.

I claim: 
     
         1 . A method of stabilizing a cornhole board in place on a support surface upon impact of the cornhole board by a tossed cornhole bag, the cornhole board including an inclined board have a front, a rear, and a top with a target hole therein, one or more rear supports that support the rear of the inclined board at a height above the front of the board and include corners, and one or front supports that support the front of the inclined board and include corners, comprising:
 providing a pitch pad and four corner brackets that securably receive the four support corners, the four corner brackets including a 90-degree angle corner vertical support;   stabilizing the cornhole board in place relative to the support surface with the four corner brackets by receiving the four support corners within the 90-degree angle corner vertical supports of the four corner brackets, and preventing the cornhole board from moving relative to the support surface, keeping the cornhole board in place, upon impact of the cornhole board by the tossed cornhole bag.   
     
     
         2 . The method of  claim 1 , wherein providing a pitch pad and four corner brackets comprises providing the four corner brackets integrated with the pitch pad. 
     
     
         3 . The method of  claim 1 , wherein providing a pitch pad and four corner brackets comprises providing the four corner brackets separate from the pitch pad. 
     
     
         4 . The method of  claim 3 , wherein providing a pitch pad and four corner brackets comprises providing the pitch pad with four holes therein configured to receive the four corner brackets, the four corner brackets each including a bottom and a stick gel member, and the method further comprising
 securing the bottom of the four corner brackets to the support surface with the stick gel members to stabilize the four corner brackets relative to the support surface;   disposing the pitch pad so that the four corner brackets are received within the four holes and the 90-degree angle corner vertical support extends upwardly from the pitch pad;   stabilizing the pitch pad and the cornhole board in place relative to the support surface with the four corner brackets within the four holes of the pitch pad by receiving the four support corners within the 90-degree angle corner vertical support of the four corner brackets and the four corner brackets secured to the support surface, preventing the cornhole board and pitch pad from moving relative to the support surface, keeping the cornhole board and pitch pad in place, upon impact of the cornhole board by the tossed cornhole bag.   
     
     
         5 . A cornhole board stabilizing unit for stabilizing a cornhole board in place on a support surface, the cornhole board including a front, a rear, and a top with a target hole therein, one or more rear supports that support the rear of the cornhole board at a height above the front of the board and include support corners, and one or more front supports that support the front of the cornhole board and include support corners, the cornhole board stabilizing unit comprising:
 a pitch pad;   four corner brackets with 90-degree angle corner vertical supports extending upwardly from the pitch pad and configured to receive the four support corners.   
     
     
         6 . The cornhole board stabilizing unit of  claim 5 , wherein the four corner brackets are integrated with the pitch pad. 
     
     
         7 . The cornhole board stabilizing unit of  claim 5 , wherein the four corner brackets are separate from the pitch pad. 
     
     
         8 . The cornhole board stabilizing unit of  claim 7 , wherein the four corner brackets include one or more stick gel members configured to secure the four corner brackets to the support surface, and the pitch pad includes four holes therein configured to receive the four corner brackets so that the 90-degree angle corner vertical supports extend upwardly from the pitch pad and receive the four support corners of the cornhole board, preventing the cornhole board and the pitch pad from moving relative to the support surface, keeping the cornhole board and pitch pad in place, upon impact of the cornhole board by the tossed cornhole bag.
