Hryhoriy Ivanovych Batych (Ukrainian: Григорій Іванович Батич, Russian: Григорий Иванович Батич, Hryhoriy Ivanovych Batych; 8 February 1958 – 24 November 2008) was a Ukrainian football midfielder and coach.

He capped for USSR youth team at 1977 FIFA World Youth Championship.

Hryhoriy Batych was born in a family of a deported Ukrainian Insurgent Army militant Ivan Batih[3] whose name during deportation was butchered by a NKVD officials to Batich (adopted to Ukrainian as Batych). So it was left as such afterwards when the family returned to Lviv in 1972.
