Where to Buy a Kubb Set

Looking to buy a kubb set? Here's the one we recommend, available on Amazon.

It meets the official dimensions used in tournaments and championships worldwide, and — just as importantly — it's built from shock-absorbent rubberwood, a durable material that resists chipping and splintering. That makes it a solid choice for regular use outdoors, season after season.

Game Rules

Kubb is played between two teams. From behind their baseline, team A throws batons to try to knock over the base kubbs on team B's side of the pitch. Kubbs knocked over by team A are then thrown back by team B onto team A's half of the pitch. Team B then throws batons at team A's kubbs, first knocking over any standing field kubbs. The kubb closest to the middle line of the field becomes the throwing line for the attacking team.

The first team to knock over all the kubbs — and then the king — wins the game. If a team accidentally knocks over the king before that, they immediately lose.
