History

Until fall of the Soviet Union in 1991, Ukrainian student footballers had chance to compete at Universiades as part of the Soviet Union football team. [3] The Soviet football team debuted at the 1987 Universiades and won the tournament. [3] It was based primarily on the Vilnius team of FK Zalgiris (all Lithuanian team). [3]

The Ukraine student football team debuted in 1995 in Japan. [3] The team was mainly based on FC CSKA Kyiv (not to be confused with its other contemporary FC CSKA-Borysfen Kyiv) that was recently promoted to the 1995–96 Ukrainian Second League. [3] The team was led by Volodymyr Lozynskyi and Volodymyr Bezsonov reached semifinal where it lost and later for the third place it also yielded to Russia student football team (based on FC KAMAZ Naberezhnye Chelny). [3] The Ukrainian forward Pavlo Matviychenko with 5 goal tallies became the top scorer of the tournament in Japan. [3]

In 1997 the team departed under leadership of former Soviet international footballer and Ukrainian head coach Anatoliy Konkov who had on his team such Ukrainian footballers like Anatoliy Tymoshchuk, Andriy Vorobey, Andrei Karyaka, as well as Serhiy Perkhun. [3] The team however did not disclose its full potential by placing fourth repeating achievement of the previous Bezsonov-Lozynskyi's squad. [3]

To the 1999 tournament the team was formed by Viktor Zhylin and was based on FC Systema-Boreks Borodianka that was managed by Zhylin at that time. [3]

In 2001 the team led by Anatoliy Buznik won its first medals when in final game Ukraine lost to the team of Japan. [3] The Ukraine student football team of Buznik was also helped by Ihor Yakubovskyi and consisted of following players [3]
