The Michigan Kubb Championship is the result of a collaboration between Michigan’s three kubb clubs (Kalamazoo Kubb, Great Lakes Kubb, and Motor City Kubb). This tournament is currently the only kubb tournament in Southwest Michigan, and one of three in the state (others include Great Lakes 1v1 Championship in Alanson, and the Motown Kubb Showdown in New Baltimore). The inaugural Michigan Kubb Championship was held in Kalamazoo on June 22, 2019. The 2nd annual Michigan Kubb Championship is back for 2021 after a hiatus in 2020 due to the Covid-19 pandemic. Join us September 25, 2021 for all the kubb fun!
