My father in law recently made some corn hole boards for us. Do you have any favorite lawn games?
Would tennis be considered as a lawn game? I guess I like football or soccer if your American.
Tennis is probably the closest of those sports you mentioned. Lawn games are essentially anything you can play in a residential yard: lawn darts, bocce, lawn bowling, etc.
I don't think I have a favourite then. I guess darts would interest me. By the way what is corn hole boards and how is it played?

Sounds like a fun game for the family and a great day out. I think if lawn games can get the whole family out into the sun I'm all in.
They are great outdoor family fun; that's why companies market for their use in the front or backyard.
I might have to look into Corn Hole and find out what its all about. I guess for me I do more of a barbecue as my own interpretation of an adults lawn game lol.

Bags are

In his book "Forty Years of First Class Lawn Tennis", published in 1924, he wrote: "As for lawn tennis in conjunction with the Olympic Games, the whole thing is a inconguous farce. You could as well have Olympic cricket or Olympic golf. It is difficult to believe that players or public can treat the matter seriously or care two straws about it. Why it is wanted, or tolerated, when we already have the Davis Cup, is beyond my comprehension."
