What can kubb do?

15 teams. 40 participants. Five states represented. Over $500 for charities. 40 pairs of eyeglasses for Unite for Sight. Oh yea, and a large box of school supplies for a refugee camp in Ghana. That is what kubb can do, in one day. (more...)

Or, how about 31 teams, 77 participants, and five states. Oh yea, and $1800 for two important causes. Again, that is what kubb can do, in one day. (more)


Come again? You want some more? Bring it. 48 teams, 115 players, six states, and $2900. Kubbnation did it again, in one day. (more).

Did you say 64 teams in little old Eau Claire? Yep, yep. That's what Kubbnation did. Right in the heart of kubb country. 64 teams, 140 players, eight states, and over $3000. We all did it again, in one day. (more)

How do you change the world? You do it through kubb. That is what Kubbnation did for the fifth time in Eau Claire. You know the routine...84, 186, eight, and over 4600. When we do it, we do it big, in one day. (more)

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Welcome to the home of Wisonsin Kubb

Welcome to Wisconsin Kubb. This is where the U.S. National Kubb Championship was born. It is also the home of Kubbnation Magazine and the Dallas Oktoberfest Kubb Tournament (only six-person team tournament in the US).

The yard game kubb was born in Sweden and is played throughout Sverige. Kubb is now played around the world with tournaments in Europe and the U.S. The two goals of Wisconsin Kubb are to unite and foster better and more meaningful relationships in our communities and spread Swedish and Nordic culture.

Kubb comes from a land where summer nights are mystical and merge with the mornings, and cloudless winter days, with the sun low in the horizon, are blinding, bitter, and at the same time agonizingly short. Many wonder about the origins of this Swedish game, also known as Viking Chess. Where in Sweden were the first throwing pins thrown at a kubb? Were the Vikings the first ones to play kubb? Obviously, the answers to those questions are unknown. However, it is easy to imagine the first games of kubb being played with firewood or perhaps scrap wood from a new barn. Perhaps the first kubb pitch was set up in the deep, dark, stone covered, and troll-filled forests of Småland. Or, perhaps the first kubb game was played in a wind swept grassy area of Gotland or Öland in sight of the raw and relentless Baltic Sea. Regardless, kubb, like many of our ancestors, has traveled thousands of miles from a distant and magical land, crossed an ocean, and now resides in Wisconsin.

Kubb is for everyone. Let’s toss some lumber.

Kubb förenar människor och skapar fred på jorden.
Kubb unites people and creates peace on Earth

Over the past few months, we have worked hard with Des Moines Kubb to update the U.S. Championship rules. These rules follow the Kubb World Championship. They are now available. One minor change is that there is only one initial toss at the king to determine what team picks if they go first or pick what side they want. This is what they do at the Kubb WC. A big thanks to DMK.
