History

He represented Boland Cavaliers at several youth levels before making his first team debut against the Falcons in the 2008 Vodacom Cup.[2]

After two seasons at Boland, he joined the Pumas for one season before returning to the Cavaliers. He was included in the 2011 Stormers Super Rugby squad, but failed to make an appearance.

He then signed a contract with the Cheetahs for the 2013 Super Rugby season,[3] which he later extended until 2016.[4]
