History

Olimpik Kropyvnytskyi entered the profession ranks in 2007 competing in the Druha Liha B. Their games were played at Zirka Stadium which used to be the property of the once famous club FC Zirka Kropyvnytskyi. The president and the head coach is Yuriy Kevlich.

On July 16, 2008, the club made swap with FC Zirka Kropyvnytskyi and continued on the amateur level.[3]

In October 2019 the club became in the middle of international scandal when 30 players from Africa that the club signed contract complained about the fact that the club refuses to pay according to the signed contract, because being an amateur club it is not obligated to pay its players salary.[4] Coincidentally earlier in 2019 several foreign students in Kropyvnytskyi came out on protest as the local university request them to pay repeatedly for their education.[5]
