This article is for both Disney Channel Games 2006 and Disney Channel Games 2007.

The Disney Channel Games is an olympic-based miniseries that has aired in the summer months since 2006. The Disney Channel Games have recently finished their second year, and is produced by 7ate9 Entertainment, located in Hollywood, California.

Premise

The miniseries takes Disney Channel stars and divides them into four teams. Each week, selected members of each team compete against each other in obstacles and games. Depending on how well each team does, a certain number of points will be added to each team's score. 1st 200, 2nd 150, 3rd 100,4th 75. While this is the primary way teams get points, fans can also play selected games on Disney Channel's official website and submit the points they earn to their favorite team. The team with the most points submitted in is given bonus points. Also, one week after each event, the Most Valuable Player MVP (who is voted upon by viewers online) is announced. After eight weeks of competition, the winning team is announced.

The Disney Channel Games airs on Saturday nights from 8pm-10pm on Disney Channel during the summer seasons. The competitions are shown in between new episodes of four Disney Channel shows.

Disney Channel Games 2006

The Disney Channel Games 2006 were the first annual competitions. They began airing in the US on June 10, 2006, along with the So Hot Summer! 2006. It was later aired in the UK November 3, 2006, Australia on January 5, 2007, and in Latin America on February 26, 2007. It was recently aired in Canada on the Family Channel on June 19, 2007.

There were three teams: the Red Team, the Blue Team and the Green Team. The stars on the teams were from various Disney Channel Original Series and the Disney Channel Original Movies that would air that summer. Each member of the team was given a nickname and Brenda Song, Ashley Tisdale and Zac Efron acted as team captains. The events were hosted by Brian Stepanek and Phill Lewis (respectively, Arwin and Mr. Moseby from The Suite Life of Zack and Cody). Characters and their voices from the animated series acted as studio hosts. These included Christy Carlson Romano(Kim Possible), John DiMaggio(Dr. Drakken and Fu Dog), Dante Basco(Jake Long), J.P. Manoux(Kuzco) and Patrick Warburton(Kronk). It is said that in Disney Channel Games 2008, Cole and Dylan Sprouse will be on the yellow team together and Cole will be the captain, the blue team captain will be Jason Dolley, the red team captain will be Sabrina Bryan, and the green team captain will be Monique Coleman. It is also said that Brenda Song, Kyle Massey, and Lucas Grabeel will not be joining the rest.

The Winning Team

The Green Team won the competition and chose to donate the $25,000 to the The Boys and Girls Club Of America. But, in a final twist, Disney gave each team $25,000 too. So at the end of the day all Teams finished the 2007 games with money for their charity!
