Club history
The club played on the professional level in 1937, 1957 to 1994, 1999 to 2017 and from 2023. The highest level it ever achieved was the second highest (Soviet First League and Russian First Division), where it played in 1957–1962, 1982, 1983, and 1992. It was called Dynamo Vyatka (1923–1934 before the city of Vyatka was renamed to Kirov), Vyatka Kirov (1993–1996), Mashinostroitel Kirov (1997–1998), and Dynamo-Mashinostroitel Kirov (1999–2003).
On 18 July 2017, the club voluntarily left the third-tier Russian Professional Football League due to lack of financing.[1]
For the 2023 season, Dynamo was licensed for the Russian Second League once again (for the fourth-tier Division B).[2] At the end of the 2024 season, it was promoted to the third-tier Second League Division A.[3]
