A central midfielder, he was capped by the Wales semi-pro team. A former youth team player with Stoke City and Port Vale, he made his first team debut at League of Wales side Newtown in 1997. He spent three years with the club before joining Conference club Chester City in June 2000. He returned to the League of Wales with TNS in January 2002, and would go on to spend the rest of his career there. During this time the club won the league championship eight times, the Welsh Cup four times, the Welsh League Cup six times, and the FAW Premier Cup once. He was inducted into the Welsh Premier League league Hall of Fame in November 2015. He was appointed manager of The New Saints in May 2017.
Ruscoe started his career with two years at Stoke City, and then a year at Port Vale, before he joined League of Wales side Newtown in 1997. He scored seven goals from 34 appearances in the 1997–98 season as the "Robins" finished as runners-up behind champions Barry Town.
