History

The Cherkasy city football club traces its heritage to 1947 when Cherkasy FC (ChFC) represented the city at the republican football competitions. Next year the city was represented by an army team Dom Ofitserov (DO). Upon creation of the Cherkasy Oblast in 1954, the city of Cherkasy was represented in republican competitions by Torpedo.

In 1955, the city was represented in republican competitions by local branch of Dynamo sports society, but in mid-season was replaced with another team that was a member of Burevisnyk sports society. Burevisnyk is considered to be a direct predecessor of the latter FC Dnipro. That year (1955) is also inscribed on the shield of Cherkaskyi Dnipro. Over its history Dnipro has already many times revived and dissolved.

Slavutych – Cherkaskyi Dnipro

In 2010, on initiative of the Cherkasy Oblast Governor Serhiy Tulub a new club was created under the name of Slavutych and supposedly without any relations to Dnipro.

The club started out in the 2011 Ukrainian Football Amateur League. The club submitted its license to the Professional Football League of Ukraine and was accepted into the Ukrainian Second League for the 2011–12 season. The June 20, 2011 decision of the Central Council of PFL team accepted the team's professional status.[5] The new club received a new bus for transport as a gift and expansion for its sporting facilities.[6]

Soon after the establishment of the club (in 2011), the Dnipro ultras asked the club's leadership to returned the city's club its original name of Dnipro instead of Slavutych and recognize the original club as a direct predecessor of Slavutych.[7][8][9]

The club known as FC Slavutych Cherkasy in July 2014 merged with neighbors FC Zorya Bilozirya and was initially renamed, Slavutych-Zorya Cherkasy.[10] However the club decided to have input from their fans and the club was renamed to Cherkaskyi Dnipro.[11] It placed the year of establishment of FC Dnipro Cherkasy 1955 on its club's shield.

On 30 October 2017, the club was reconstituted as United Football Club of the Cherkasy Region territorial communes "Cherkaskyi Dnipro – Bilozirya Academy",[12] but renaming process was cancelled in December 2017.[13]

Cherkashchyna-Akademiya

The club was dissolved in July 2018 and reorganized based on its academy in Bilozirya.[3][4] FC Zorya-Akademia Bilozirya changed its name to FC Cherkashchyna-Akademiya-2 Bilozirya and continues to compete at regional level.[14]
