History

He played for the Eastern Province Kings in the 2006 Under-18 Academy Week and was included in the South Africa squad that competed in the Confederation of African Rugby Under–18 tournament.

He then played for the NMMU Madibaz in the 2011, 2012 and 2013 Varsity Cup competitions, which earned him a call-up to the Eastern Province Kings 2013 Vodacom Cup squad. He made his debut against Free State XV.^[2]

After the 2013 Vodacom Cup season, he signed a two-year contract with the SWD Eagles prior to the 2013 Currie Cup First Division.^[3]
