Following the end of the A Championship, Dynamos were placed in Division 1A of the KDL, to the consternation of the footballing fraternity of Kerry. They were much too strong for the division and have now been promoted to Premier B while on course to achieve a 100% record for the season.

The club also continues to field senior teams in junior football, its "B" side competing in Division 2B of the Kerry District League.
