Football career

Vaughan started his career at Liverpool, playing reserve and youth football. However, he was released in 2004 having played over 70 reserve games. He represented England at Under-15, Under-17 and Under-19 level.

He was soon signed by League Two side Chester City, which was owned by his father Stephen Vaughan, Sr, under the guidance of Mark Wright. He quickly became a regular at the Deva Stadium, and became the owner of the club in 2009.

At the start of the 2006–07 season, he was made Chester's captain at aged 21. He made 58 league appearances. On 3 January 2007, new Rochdale manager Keith Hill made Vaughan his first signing, initially on loan until 4 February, with a view to a permanent deal. However, on 18 January 2007, Boston United signed him on a one-year contract from Chester City. He made seven appearances for the Pilgrims before rupturing his achilies tendon against Hartlepool, which sidelined him for nine-months. Now fully recovered, he rejoined Chester on 8 February 2008. He was then loaned out to Droylsden in the Conference National for one-month, as part of a rehabilitation programme.

Stephen made his first league appearance back for the club in a 5–1 win over Barnet on 30 August 2008, playing the full 90 minutes along with his brother, James. He made eight appearances during the 2008–09 season in The Football League and started the opening game of the following season against Cambridge United in the Conference National.

In late March 2010 he joined Marine along with fellow former Chester player Lloyd Ellams
