In 1978 the club first entered the Icelandic football league, playing in a 3rd division provincial group for two seasons, 1978 and 1979. UMFS Dalvík re-joined the football league in 1982 starting in the newly formed 4th division. The club's sole national honour came in 1996 when it won the 3rd division championship[4]. In 2002 UMFS Dalvík joined with rivals Leiftur Ólafsfjörður forming a new club, Leiftur/Dalvík ending UMFS Dalvík's direct involvement in the football league. After the 2005 season the Leiftur/Dalvík partnership broke up and Dalvík joined another rivals in forming Dalvík/Reynir.
