History
Founding
Dynamo Sparta was founded on the 14th of January, 2008, as Super Dud XI. They started off in a Division V series, but got relegated down into VI.897. During this time, the teams name was changed to TAS/VIC Greek Heroes. It only lasted 2 months with the original name. The team has been playing under the TAS/VIC Greek Heroes for up to a year now.
TAS/VIC Greek Heroes - more commonly known as their acronym, TVGH - have been trying to get their way out of their division VI series, having close encounters each season, finshing between 2nd and 4th - just outside the promotion position. In recent times, the team have been buying new players, and trying to sell old ones. They have more of an international team now, with players coming from all over the world, from countries such as: Finland, Brazil, Italy, Switzerland, Spain, Poland, Holland and Denmark.
Rejuvination
After many season trying to win the VI.897 title, and get their way back up to a division V series, the team has been recently undergoing some rejuvination. At the end of the global season 38, they will be officialy known by their new name, Dynamo Sparta FC. This means that the global season 38, will be their last season as TVGH, and the last season the team will undergo a name change. They are hoping that with the signing of their new recruits, the team will climb their way up the Oceanian rankings, and look to a bright and successful future ahead of them.
Colours and Badge
The teams colours were chosen at random, blue and gold. Although the blue may symbolise Europe, the continent where Sparta is located - in Greece. The teams name was chosen to use Sparta in it, as that is where the managers - Jordan1 - origins come from.
The team's logo has been templated from Sparta Prague's logo, even though Sparta Prague is a team from Prague, Czech Republic - not Sparta, Greece. The logo consists of a circle, which has the words "Dynamo Sparta Football" around the outside, and the word "CLUB" underneath it. All text is red with a blue stroke. Inside the circle, there are blue and gold stripes, with the two letters "DS" in it. "DS" is obviously for Dynamo Sparta. The logo also has a skirt underneath the word "CLUB", which has been broken up into three parts, which consists of the clubs colours: Blue (on the left and right section), and Gold (in the middle section).

Staff
Coach - Leon Christensen (Danish)
Leon has been at the club since the 17th of January, 2008 - 3 days after the team was put together. He has done well training the squad, and now looks to training them to be as fit as teams from divisions above VI. He is neither attack or defence-minded, and likes to look at the whole team all around the park. Leon is definately a coach to stay, and the fans seem to love him.

Outside the stadium, directly next to it, is the Souvlaki Youth Arena, which holds 3,000 seats. The SYA is the home ground for the Super Duds Youth Academy. Behind both the Souvlaki Stadium, and the Souvlaki Youth Arena is Pita Park, the training ground to both Dynamo Sparta and Super Duds Youth Academy, which also had - adjacent to the park - the T&A Indoor facilities. T&A stands for Tzatziki kai Arni, which is greek for Tzatziki and Lamb. This name was chosen for the indoor facilities because inside a souvlaki is lamb and tzatziki. The name for all the facilities will not change during the name change of the club.
