Club career

Early career

Boyce began his career as a trainee at the age of 16 with Doncaster Rovers Academy and was offered his first pro contract with Rovers in the summer of 2009. He spent most of the 2008–09 season on loan at Worksop Town. Competition for places at Doncaster Rovers was intense with the team competing in the Championship, which culminated in Boyce being released by Rovers in January 2009. He then went for a trial with Mansfield Town in April 2009, but due to financial constraints he wasn't offered a contract. Boyce dropped into non-league football with Northern Premier League side King's Lynn, where he went on to make 18 league appearances for the club. He left King's Lynn in December 2009, the football club folding due to financial difficulties. Within a few days, he signed for Gainsborough Trinity. He helped Trinity reach the Conference North play-off final in the 2011–12 season.

Lincoln City

He earned a move to Conference Premier side Lincoln City in May 2012. Due to both clubs being unable to agree a fee, later in the year a tribunal set a five-figure undisclosed fee, plus sell-on clause for the youngester's services. On 31 August 2013, he scored his first goal for the club, in the 2–1 away victory over Dartford; after his initial header was saved, the ball rebounded back to Boyce who then struck a right footed shot into the back of the net from 12 yards.
