The 2002 European Speedway Club Champions' Cup was the fifth motorcycle speedway championship for clubs competing in Europe. It was organised by the European Motorcycle Union (UEM). The competition was primarily for Eastern European teams and only featured Polish teams from three of the 'Big four' leagues, with the British, Swedish and Danish leagues choosing not to compete.[1][2]

Mega-Łada Togliatti won the championship. The competition was somewhat farcical due to the fact that teams drafted in some riders that had previously not represented the clubs.[3][4]
