Volodymyr Kulyk (Russian: Кулик Владимир Николаевич; born 1 October 1969) is a retired Ukrainian football player and coach. He spent most of his career to Desna Chernihiv.[1]

Playing career

Kulyk started his professional career in Desna Chernihiv playing in the 1993–94 Ukrainian First League season.[2] He made his professional debut in an away game against Spartak Okhtyrka in the 1993–94 Ukrainian Cup on 1 August 1993.[3]

During the 2000–01 season, while playing for Elektron Romny, Kulyk was offered a contract from Desna which at that time was led by Yuriy Hruznov.[4] After the first half of 2001–02 season, he was injured during a training session, after which Desna gave Kulyk some money for an operation and let him go.[4] He soon retired thereafter.[4]

Coaching career

From 2003 to 2010, Kulyk was a coach at the Yunist Chernihiv academy.[4] In 2011 he was invited to try his hand with women's football as an assistant coach for Serhiy Sapronov at Lehenda Chernihiv, where he remained from 2011 to 2018.[4] In both 2011 and 2015, he managed to bring the team to second place in the Ukrainian Women's League.[5][6] In 2018, due to poor financing, Lehenda Chernihiv was merged with Yednist-ShVSM Plysky's women's side and Kulyk moved to the Skala Stryi youth academy as its under-15 boys team coach.[7][4] In 2019 he became the coach of Yednist-ShVSM Plysky.[8]
