The Keg 2002 Continental Cup of Curling was held at the Agridome in Regina, Saskatchewan November 7–10. It was the very first edition of the event. North America defeated their European counterparts 207-193. Despite the fact that all the teams were from Europe, North America's opposition was known as Team World. Later events would name the team "Team Europe" until 2008, when "Team World" was re-adopted after the inclusion of Chinese teams.
