Dynamo (Ukraine)

History

The association was established at the constituent conference of delegates from law enforcement agencies, state security, border protection, and internal troops that took place in Kharkiv on October 31, 1924. Initially, Dynamo Kharkiv was sponsored by the Kharkiv factory "Serp i Molot" (Sickle and Mallet) that was recently nationalized and renamed from Gelferikh-Sade (). The headquarters of the FST Dynamo became the Illich club at vulytsia Radnarkomivska.

The Kyiv club of Dynamo was initially sponsored by the Bolshevik factory (former "Greter and Krivanek"). On December 11, 1926, Dynamo Vinnytsia was established.

During the years of independence, from 1994 to 2010, 455 sportspeople represented Dynamo at the Olympics and earned 63 different medals (18 gold, 18 silver, 27 bronze). Overall, since 1952, the association was represented by 608 athletes, 142 of whom earned 164 medals (49 gold, 49 silver, 66 bronze).
