History

Dinamo-2 Minsk was founded in 1992 as a reserve team for Dinamo Minsk, replacing Dinamo-d Minsk, who competed in Soviet Double Top League before the dissolution of USSR. Dinamo-2 spent 1992 season in Belarusian First League and won the tournament. In order to get promoted, Dinamo-2 separated from its parent and became independent team. They were renamed to FC Belarus Minsk for the 1992-93 season, and finally to FC Dinamo-93 Minsk in 1993.

The team was quite successful: they finished second once (1993-94), and third three times (1992-93, 1994-95 and 1995). They also won Belarusian Cup in 1995 and reached the final again 1997. Due to these results Dinamo-93 were able to play in European Cups (Cup Winners' Cup in 1995-96, UEFA Cup in 1996-97 and Intertoto Cup in 1997).

In 1998, after playing 14 games of the championship and also having one automatic 0-3 loss for missing game in Vitebsk, Dinamo-93 withdrew from the competition due to lack of finances and disbanded.
