    Just like last year, the Kubb On staff decided it would be fun to break down the bracket and make some predictions. In this article, the staff will look more in-depth at a portion of the bracket and guess who they believe will advance to Sunday. For reference, check out the official groups and bracket.

    Kubb On would like to remind everyone that this is all just for fun. The staff doesn’t claim to know every team or every player, but it’s too intriguing not to at least speculate.

    While the voters we’re pretty unanimous in their predictions for this quarter, predicting Damage Incorporated (2017 Champion), Kubb Squirrels (T13), Kalifornia Kubbers (T9), and Beauty School Dropouts (G), but there are a few other teams that could make their way to Sunday. The Bumps (G), King Kung (G), and Shinbusters could all break this bracket up.

    Dark Horses

    • King Kung
    • Shinbusters

    King Kung and Shinbusters are both long-time well performing teams, if they play well or catch one of our picks sleeping they could easily find their way to Sunday.

    Other teams to watch: The Bumps, Pitch Perfect

    Potential Matchup to Watch

    • King Kung vs. Pitch Perfect

    Pitch Perfect is a highly competitive team that plays in a lot of tournaments, These young players are always improving.

        We encourage everyone to prove us wrong Kyle! We were all first timers once, go out there have fun and bring your A game. You’re in a great group for a first time team, you’ll see all levels of kubb from all around the country and all the players are some of the best people you can meet. I can guarantee you’ll have a great time and we’ll be seeing you in Eau Claire every year!
