He started his career with Football League side Port Vale in 2005 but failed to make an impact and moved on to non-League Leek Town two years later.

He switched to Sutton Coldfield Town and Mickleover Sports briefly in January 2018 before returning to Stafford Rangers in the summer.

Born in Burton upon Trent, Staffordshire, Briscoe began his career as a trainee at Port Vale.

[3] The following season he made just the one appearance, coming off the bench late into a 4–0 defeat at League Two Hereford United in the FA Cup.

When Holdsworth was appointed as manager of Mansfield Town in November 2008, he offered the young winger a chance to return to full-time football.

However, his most telling contribution would be in the FA Trophy, where he booked the club a place in the Wembley final with an extra time goal against Luton Town in the semi-finals.

[13] At the end of the campaign Briscoe was named in the Conference Team of the Year,[14] and was made Mansfield Town's Player of the Season.

He scored a hat-trick in a 7–0 demolition of Barrow at Field Mill on 17 March 2012, completing his treble with a 25 yards (23 m) volley.

He scored eight goals in 44 appearances in the 2012–13 campaign, as Mansfield won promotion into the Football League as Conference champions.

[17] After losing his first-team place at Mansfield he joined Conference club Nuneaton Town on a one-month loan in October 2013.

[19] In June 2014, he signed for newly-relegated Conference club Torquay United; "Gulls" manager Chris Hargreaves stated that "Louis has pace, he can beat a man, he has an excellent goal record for a winger, and he can also play up front if needed".

[30] His stay at Sutton Coldfield lasted a matter of days, as on 19 January 2018 he was announced as a new signing by Mickleover Sports manager John McGrath.
