Club career

Earlier in his career, Pace played for various Victorian teams, including South Melbourne, Essendon Royals and the Preston Lions. He has been described as a "utility" player,[1] having played as a midfielder as well as a central defender. He played in the latter position for the Preston Lions in their successful 2007 campaign, when they won the Victorian Premier League Championship.[2]

When the Melbourne Victory signed Pace in October 2007, coach Ernie Merrick said about him:[3]

"Steven reads the game well, has excellent speed, good distribution and possesses great maturity"

He made his first appearance for the Melbourne Victory against the Central Coast Mariners on 4 November 2007.[4]
