Dinamo Arkhangel'sk (Cyr. Динамо Архангельск) is a Uralican football (soccer) club who plays in the Bolakliiga, but also, by invitation, played in the Valonliiga, which was TOOL's official short-lived alliance league system. They did not play in the inaugural Bolakliiga season, however, they finished fourth in 2009, 3 points behind Dinamo Kirov. Even more impressive was the fact that they made it to the semifinals of the 2009 Kanslerinkilpi, even though they ended up losing to SiPS 4-1. Among the teams they defeated were Gazovik Izhevsk (semifinals), Trátyi TK (round of 16), and Telekom Pazhga (3rd round).
Their home pitch, Arhangelinstadion (Russ. Архангельский Стадион) is one of many Uralican stadiums that is completely enclosed, due in part to the frigid climate in the north of Uralica.
As with some other Uralican football clubs, Dinamo was formed by a merger - Dinamo-Khimik and Roma Arkhangel'sk merged with Arhangelin PS (ArPS).
