The 2002 Potters Holidays World Indoor Bowls Championship [1] was held at Potters Leisure Resort, Hopton on Sea, Great Yarmouth, England, from 08-26 January 2002.
In the singles Tony Allcock completed a shock victory. Unseeded and unfancied the Englishman’s win equalled the record of three title wins by David Bryant and Richard Corsie.
In the pairs Hugh Duff & Paul Foster defeated Greg Harlow & Graham Robertson in the final.

The women's singles competition took place in Belfast from April 18–20. The title was won by Carol Ashby.

Notes

A new scoring format was introduced; a game would now consist of two sets of nine ends. If the two sets resulted in draw (one set each) then a deciding set of just three ends would be played to determine the winner.
