Summary
After nine years of competition at the senior amateur level FC Vorkuta made the transition to the professional ranks in 2017 by becoming a member in the Canadian Soccer League.[5] In preparation for the 2017 CSL season the team hired the services of Serhiy Zayets as head coach.[6] Zayets assembled a roster with several key CSL veterans acquired primarily from FC Ukraine United. The acquisitions included Sergiy Ivliev, Oleg Shutov, Mykhailo Bulkin, Vitaliy Dnistryan, Danylo Lazar, Vadym Gostiev, and Oleh Kerchu was named the team captain. In addition to the CSL veterans several imports were brought in from Ukraine and Russia to further strengthen the roster.[7]
Vorkuta also fielded a reserve squad in the CSL Second Division.[8] In the earlier stages of the season the club achieved an eight-game undefeated streak with only two defeats throughout the season.[9] They concluded the season by clinching the regular season title with the highest offensive record. Their playoff campaign commenced with an early victory over Royal Toronto FC, but were eliminated from the competition after a 1-0 defeat to Scarborough SC.[10]
