Belarusian football clubs in the Soviet competitions

During the Soviet period, the Belarusian football competitions were not fully integrated in the All-Union competitions and continued to exist as republican competitions. There was almost no promotion/relegation between the Belarusian football competitions and the All-Union football competitions. Only selected clubs were participating in the All-Union competitions.
