Beloit to host 7th Annual U.S. Kubb Open

MADISON, Wis. (WMTV) -The stage is set for the second largest display of Kubb play in North America.

Saturday Aug. 12, dozens of teams, consisting of two players, will be vying for the title during the 7th Annual U.S. Kubb Open in Beloit.

The wooden-throwing game, described to be a mix between bowling and horseshoes, is a fit for any age and skillset level.

And in case you develop a real knack for the sport, come springtime, Eau Claire hosts the U.S. National Kubb Championship.

Spectators and players will have a chance to support the Beloit Youth Hockey Association during the tournament, with 100% of the proceeds from their food and beverage sales going towards the association.

Kubb United and Visit Beloit join The Morning Show Wednesday to demonstrate the sport originating in Sweden.
