Career

After the 2011-season he signed for Sandnes Ulf,[4] and when Bo Andersen in June 2012 announced that he would retire after the season,[5] Sandnes Ulf played with Falch as their first-choice goalkeeper in Tippeligaen for the rest of the season.[6]

In March 2024, Falch signed a one-year contract with Haugesund after injuries in their goalkepper squad.[7]
