[edit] History

The men's team is by far the most successful team in Chinese football, winning 7 of the 10 Jia A seasons and has also claimed the crown in the second Chinese Super League season. Dalian also reached the quarterfinals of the first two ACL editions but have recently been inconsistent due to team and coach changes, especially the retirement of talisman Hao Haidong. Currently, the team is primarily academy members. Since 2008, Dalian Shide has selected a number of players for its satellite team in the S.League in Singapore, called Dalian Shide Siwu FC.
