He represented his local team the Border Bulldogs in the 2007 Under-19 Provincial Championship competition and at Under-21 level in 2007, 2008 and 2009.

Border Bulldogs

In 2010, he was included in the senior squad for the 2010 Vodacom Cup tournament and started the first game of the season, a 69–8 defeat to the Natal Sharks.[2] He quickly established himself as a regular for the senior side and played in both the Vodacom Cup and Currie Cup competitions between 2010 and 2012, accumulating 42 appearances in total.

After three seasons of senior rugby at the Border Bulldogs, he then moved to Wellington to join the Boland Cavaliers and played in all seven of their games in the 2013 Vodacom Cup competition.

He joined Griquas for the 2014 season.[3]

Border Bulldogs

At the start of 2016, Kebe was one of six Border Bulldogs players that joined the Kings' Super Rugby squad for a trial period as they prepared for the 2016 Super Rugby season.[4] However, he returned to Border Bulldogs after he failed to be contracted for the Super Rugby side.[5]

Representative rugby

In 2012, he was included in a South African Barbarians (South) team that faced England during the 2012 mid-year rugby test series.[6] The following year, he was included in a South Africa President's XV team that played in the 2013 IRB Tbilisi Cup[7] and won the tournament after winning all three matches.[8]
