The 1902 Scottish County Championship was the first running of organised county cricket, under the new Scottish County Championship, in Scotland which ran from 5 May to 23 August 1902. Forfarshire won the inaugural season.
One point was awarded for a win, and one point was taken away for each loss, therefore:
Final placings were decided by dividing the number of points earned by the number of completed matches (i.e. those that ended in a win or a loss), and multiplying by 100. Abandoned matches were counted as draws.
