The Prince Philip Cup Games are a team competition played by Pony Clubs around the world. The Games are played by teams of five riders and five ponies, four of which participate in each game. All of the Games are variations on the relay race, and all are great fun for players and spectators alike. Many of the Games require the riders and ponies to run a slalom course around a series of poles from one end of the playing field to the other, where they hand-off something to the next rider on their team. In some races, riders have to vault off of and onto their ponies.

The Regional A and B level winners go on to play for the Central Zone Championship against teams from the Western Ontario and Saint Lawrence-Ottawa Valley (this year's host). The two top Central Zone A level teams then play against representatives of all other Zones for the National Championship, with Central Ontario hosting the event in late September, at a location to be announced later. There is also a National Masters Championship, which will be hosted by the BC Lower Mainland Region in August.
