The Yugoslavia national speedway team were one of the teams that competed in international team motorcycle speedway.
History
The Yugoslavian speedway team first competed in the Speedway World Team Cup during the 1962 Speedway World Team Cup, finishing second in the central European round. Throughout the history of World Team Cup, the team were regular World Cup competitors from 1962 until their final World Cup in 1992. However, they were one of the weaker nations and failed to reach the latter stages of the competition.
Following the breakup of Yugoslavia, the riders then competed for their new speedway nations, primarily Croatia and Slovenia.
