During the first couple of decades of the Ukrainian second tier (Persha Liha), the team dominated the league competition and won three titles. Later its performance declined, and the club concentrated its effort on its junior squads competing in parallel competitions for the youth.
History
editThe team existed as early as 1938 when it first played at the top tier of the Ukrainian Football Championship placing 8th among 12 teams. Before the World War II the Ukrainian Football Championship was a tier-structured republican level competition two levels below the 2 tiers All-Union Football League.
Following the World War II, Dynamo Kyiv continued to field its second squad in the Football Championship of the Ukrainian SSR, but under name Dynamo Kyiv for at least four seasons yet, to differentiate it from the team of masters, it was referred to as Dynamo-klubnaya.
In 1965, there was created the second team of FC Dynamo Kyiv and replaced FC Temp Kyiv (that represented the Kyiv Aircraft Factory). It only competed for one season in the Ukrainian Class B football competitions of the Soviet Union.
In 1992, Dynamo-2 Kyiv was revived based on its double (reserve team, Dynamo-d Kyiv) which played in competition for reserves teams of the Soviet Top League. The new team was admitted to the 1992 Ukrainian First League.
In 2004, when there was created a separate competition for reserve teams of the Ukrainian Premier League, the team was preserved and continued to compete at a professional level in regular league competitions until 2016.
The team participated regularly in the Ukrainian First League, since it cannot be promoted to the Ukrainian Premier League, being a reserve team from the FC Dynamo Kyiv franchise. Like most tributary teams, the best players are sent up to the senior team, meanwhile developing other players for further call-ups.
