Playing a game of kubb requires both skill and precision, but also a strategical mindset! The game kubb has a long history. Kubb as we know it today was invented on a Swedish island named Gotland. It gained widespread popularity in the late s, when commercial sets were first manufactured.

Gotland — Sweden's largest island — is generally considered the home and origin of the game kubb. Legend has it that the game dates back to the Vikings and has survived since then on Gotland, but there's really no evidence to support this. Kubb is sometimes marketed as Viking Chess nonetheless. There is however evidence that skittle games similar to kubb were played in Ancient Egypt see image and Greece, which leads us to conclude they migrated north, rather than the other way around.

In Gotland in the late s, kubb's popularity suddenly surged as it started to emerge in parks and gardens. There came a demand, and so the first kubb sets for commercial sales were made. Nowadays, most kubb sets are made of rubberwood, which does not easily chip or splinter. After booming in the Nordic countries in the late s, kubb has now become a global success.

Kubb tournaments are played all over the world. Belgium alone hosts more than 50 tournaments each year. And the Kubb World Championship? It's still organised on the island of Gotland — a 3 day event that attracts more than participants every year. The slogan of the Kubb World Championship — Kubb unites people and creates peace on Earth — perfectly conveys the philosophy of the game kubb.

A game to be enjoyed by family and friends and a game to serve as a spirited competition, but never mean spirited. A good outdoor game brings people together in the fresh air and spurs conversation and camaraderie. Kubb fits the bill. Check out more of our members.
