Trevor Dance (born 31 July 1958) is a former English footballer.
Dance joined Port Vale as an apprentice in August, signing his first professional forms in July 1976 and making his debut in a 2–1 defeat at Mansfield Town on 28 December 1976. He made a highly impressive Vale Park debut on 10 January 1977, his saves were a key part of a 3–1 victory over Second Division Hull City in the FA Cup third round replay game.[1]
He was sent on loan to local rivals Stoke City in May 1978 and American outfit Cleveland Cobras the next month, returning in August 1978. He became the regular Vale keeper in January 1979, a position he managed to hold on to until August 1980. He was loaned out to non-league Stafford Rangers in September 1980 and signed a permanent deal the next month, Rangers paying Vale £10,000. He later played for Altrincham and Telford United.[2]
