Career

editHalchuk began playing at the local youth level and ultimately signed with Volyn Lutsk in the Ukrainian First League in 2001.[1][2] In his debut season with Volyn, he helped the club secure promotion to the Ukrainian Premier League by winning the league title.[3] During his tenure in Volyn, the majority of his time was spent with their junior team Kovel-Volyn Kovel. Halchuk also had a loan spell with Polissya Zhytomyr.[4] Throughout his four-year stint with Volyn, he made several appearances in the Ukrainian top tier.[5]
In 2005, he returned to the Ukrainian second trier to sign with Hazovyk-Skala Stryi.[6] After a season with Hazovyk, he signed with league rivals Lviv the following year.[7][8] Halchuk returned to the country's premier league when he assisted Lviv in securing promotion following the conclusion of the 2007-08 season.[9][10] He made 16 appearances with Lviv during his second stint in the top tier.[11] In one notable match on 16 August 2008, against rivals Vorskla Poltava, UA-Football named him as one of the two best central defenders of the fifth round in the Ukrainian Premier League.[12] Unfortunately, the club's run in the premier league was short-lived as they were relegated to the First League.[13]
After five seasons with Lviv, he remained in the second tier by signing with Helios Kharkiv.[14] He re-signed with Helios for the 2011-12 season.[15] In 2013, he signed with league rivals Tytan Armyansk.[16] After appearing in 17 matches he left Tytan after the season's conclusion.[17] Following his departure from Tytan, he spent some time at the amateur level.[18] He returned to the professional level in 2015 by signing with NK Veres Rivne in the Ukrainian Second League.[19] He departed from Veres after the season to pursue a career in Canada.[20]
Canada
editIn 2016, he went abroad to sign with FC Ukraine United of the Canadian Soccer League.[21][22] In his debut season in Canada, he assisted the club in securing a postseason berth by finishing second in the First Division.[23] He also served as vice-captain and helped the club reach the second round of the playoffs.[23]
The following season he played with league rivals Vorkuta and won the First Division title with the club.[24][25][26] In his second season with Vorkuta, he assisted in securing the CSL Championship where he recorded a goal against Scarborough SC.[27][28] In 2020, he assisted in securing Vorkuta's second CSL Championship after defeating Scarborough SC.[29][30] In 2021, he assisted in securing Vorkuta's third regular season title and secured the ProSound Cup against Scarborough.[31][32] He also played in the 2021 playoffs where Vorkuta was defeated by Scarborough in the championship final.[33][34]
