FC Obolon Kyiv (Ukrainian: Оболонь Київ, pronounced [oboʼǀɔnʲ ˈkɪjiu̯]) is a Ukrainian professional football club based in Kyiv (Obolonskyi District). Its home colors are green shirts and white shorts; while its away uniforms are white shirts and green shorts. Its main sponsor was the brewery Obolon in 1999–2013. Since 2013, the club is owned by the factory.
The club was reformed in 2013 due to administrative issues and hence the team withdrew from the Professional Football League of Ukraine during the 2012–13 Ukrainian First League season in February 2013.[2] The club restarted from amateur competitions. Between 2013 and 2020, the team was known as Obolon-Brovar Kyiv.[3]
