Eupolemos of Elis (Ancient Greek: Εὐπόλεμος Ἠλεῖος) or Eupolis of Elis was an ancient Greek athlete from the city of Elis. He won several pentathlons at the Panhellenic Games.
His victory in the stadion at the XCVI Olympic Games, in 396 BC, was contested by the second-place finisher, Leon of Ambracia, who questioned the impartiality of the judges. This is an almost unique event in ancient olympic history. At the end of the appeal procedure initiated by Leon, the two judges who had decided in favor of Eupolemos were fined, but the victory remained his.
