History

Quebec Dynamo ARSQ is founded in 2008 by four promoters: Samir Ghrib, David Desloges, Stéphane Alain and Maxime Barabé.[1] The presentation of team's colors shirts and the nomination of a general manager takes place on September 24, 2009.[2] The new team is consist a non-profit organization from the Association Régionale de Soccer de Québec (ARSQ).[3] The team created to ensure the development of regional soccer in the Quebec city and Chaudière-Appalaches region.[4]

Name change

The original name for the franchise was the Arsenal SC, however, lawyers representing the English club Arsenal F.C. demanded that the team change its name, because they hold exclusive rights for that trademark in Canada. [5] Starting with the 2014 W-League season, the team name was changed from Quebec City Amiral SC to Quebec Dynamo ARSQ.

Rivalries

Quebec Dynamo ARSQ have a big rivalry with the Laval Comets.[6][7] Several former players of Comets play now for the Dynamo.[8][9] In matches between the two teams, it is not uncommon for supporters to travel Quebec city-Montreal or Montreal-Quebec city to go to encourage their teams.
