Benefits Of Playing Cornhole For Senior Citizens

by Custom Corntoss / Thursday, 17 September 2020 / Published in Information

As we age, vision, depth perception, balance, and coordination can decline. We have clients that work at retirement communities that rave about how much senior citizens enjoy their cornhole set. It gets them active and aids critical hand-eye coordination and balance.

Folks from the Oaks Playing Indoor Cornhole

Mobility and Leg Strength

The very machinations of how a cornhole bag is thrown are beneficial to seniors. It’s recommended that seniors walk heel-toe to improve mobility and leg strength and that’s what one has to do to when throwing a cornhole bag.

Balance and Hip Mobility

It’s also recommended that seniors balance on or shift their weight from one leg to another. When tossing a cornhole bag one generally takes a large stride from one leg to another. This motion is good not only for balance but also for hip mobility.

Depth Perception and Vision

In advanced years, depth perception often declines. This can be simply due to age, eye trauma, or overuse of one eye. There’s a common technique to aid depth perception if one eye is stronger than the other and its called “patching”. This is where the wearer places a patch over the stronger eye to exercise the weaker one. This treatment in combination with a game like cornhole where one must aim for the board or the hole can be a fun and effective therapy.

In general, vision declines with age and it can be beneficial for any senior citizen to play cornhole as it connects eyes, brain, and body in a stress-free and fun way.
