Career
Sikorcin was born as a member of the Hungarian minority in Ilava , Slovakia . He began his career as a hockey player in nearby Trenčín , where he played for HC Dukla . First used in the U20 team, he made his debut as an 18-year-old in the 2003/04 season, when the team from Northern Slovakia won their last championship so far, in the first team in the Extraliga .
As a 22-year-old, the striker went to MsHK in Žilina for a year . In 2008 he moved to Hungary and played there first for the Újpesti TE Budapest , which had its heyday with 13 national titles but already more than twenty years behind it, in the Hungarian-Romanian MOL league .

After this success, the Hungarian top club Alba Volán Székesfehérvár , which is the only Hungarian team to compete in the Austrian ice hockey league , noticed him and signed him. After five years there, he returned to the Hungarian capital for Újpesti TE.
