King's Lynn Stars are a motorcycle Speedway team who currently compete in the British Premier League. The nickname Stars comes from the defunct Norwich Stars team.

The promotion is currently run by Buster Chapman who also owns the stadium at Saddlebow Road on the outskirts of King's Lynn.

King's Lynn finished top of the Premier League table in 2006 but were the first team not automatically crowned champions because it was the first season that the Premier League used the play off system to decide the championship. However, the Stars beat the Sheffield Tigers to be crowned champions.
