The 2002–03 Football Conference season was the 24th season of the Football Conference.
Overview
This season the number of teams promoted to the Football League Division Three was increased from one to two, and play-offs were introduced to determine the second team to be promoted, along with the Conference champions. The bottom three, as usual, were relegated to either the Northern Premier League, the Southern Premier League or the Isthmian League.
Yeovil Town clinched the league title and won promotion to the Football League Division Three.
Doncaster Rovers also earned promotion to Division Three following their 3–2 play-off win over Dagenham & Redbridge, during extra time with a sudden death goal in the 110th minute.
The regular season began on 17 August 2002, and ended on 26 April 2003.

- Gravesend & Northfleet (promoted 2001–02)
