Established by local Croatian Australians as Dinamo, the club is a regular participant in the Australian-Croatian Soccer Tournament.
St Albans Dinamo won its first title in 1983, winning the Victorian State League Division 2 with Melbourne Knights legends Billy Vojtek (former Socceroo) and Branko Culina leading the way.
In 2005, the club was relegated from the Victorian Premier League, having played 23 consecutive seasons in the state's top tier.
Needing only a draw to survive the drop, the club was relegated in the final round after losing to Heidelberg United.
Despite high profiles signings such as Tomislav Milardovic and Daniel Višević, the club won just three of its 24 games in the VPL and was subsequently relegated back to State League 1.
The game was played in front of 3,500 supporters, with the entire Victorian Croatian community rallying around the side for this huge encounter.

Prior to the beginning of the 2016 pre-season, St Albans announced that Željko Kuzman had been appointed as head manager of the senior side with Steve Bebić his assistant.
[12] In early June, with the Club sitting in 5th place on the NPL2 West ladder, senior coaches Zeljko Kuzman, Steve Bebic and Theo Mihailidis decided to part ways with the club, citing "irreconcilable differences with the committee" as the reason behind their departure.
[13] Dinamo brought Kruni Ražov back to the club as head manager, with Josip Lončarić his assistant.
In 2018, St Albans finished in second place, qualifying for the NPL2 promotion playoff, but lost to Moreland City FC 4–1.
[17] The club's supporters are primarily from the local Croatian community in St Albans, as well as from surrounding suburbs such as Sunshine, Keilor, Taylors Lakes, Delahey, Hillside, Caroline Springs and Sydenham.
