Sebastian Dzikowski (born August 23, 2001) is a Canadian soccer player who plays for Vancouver FC in the Canadian Premier League.

Early life

Dzikowski played youth soccer with Calgary Villains FC, Calgary Foothills FC, and Cavalry FC U20. In June 2013, he played with the Canada West U12 team in the qualification match for the Danone Nations Cup against Canada East.

University career

In May 2019, Dzikowski committed to attend the University of British Columbia to play for the men's soccer team. However, he only began playing in 2021. On September 11, 2021, he scored his first goal in a victory over the Thompson Rivers WolfPack. On October 21, 2022, he scored a brace in a victory over the UBC Okanagan Heat. He opened the 2023 season with a brace against the UNBC Timberwolves on August 25. On September 16, 2023, he scored a hat trick against the MacEwan Griffins. In 2023, he set the UBC single season goals record. In 2023, he was named the Canada West Conference Player of the Year and the U Sports Player of the Year.

Club career

In April 2024, he signed a U Sports contract with Vancouver FC of the Canadian Premier League. In August 2024, he extended his U Sports contract for the remainder of the season, rather than return to university.
