Alberta South Region
Speed, agility, obedience and precision are all important in Prince Philip Games, also known as Mounted Games.
There is an endless variety of Prince Philip Games. They are all intended to be fun and help the kids develop their riding skills and encourage the riders and ponies to work together as teams. They are a great way to boost confidence of both horse and rider while having fun!
Prince Phillip Games can be done individually, but mostly they are team relay races.
The riders and ponies are asked to do a variety of tasks like dropping a ball in a bucket, dismounting and going over a course of stepping stones, dismounting and doing a sack race, collecting mugs from stakes, while racing to the other side of the field where the next team mate is waiting.
In the Alberta South Region Prince Philip Games are organized on a regular basis.
Riders and their horses or ponies compete in teams of four to five riders in a series of relay races. All levels of riders, from lead-line to the most experienced, are welcome to join us at our regional clinics and competitions. Apart from A and Masters Division competitions, there is no limit on horse or pony size and all sizes of equine friends are welcome at clinics and practices in our region.
