Career

Youth

He represented the Griffons at the 2005 Under-18 Craven Week tournament, as well as at Under-19 and Under-21 level between 2005 and 2008. He had a short spell in the Eastern Province Kings Under-19 team in 2006.

Griffons

Despite being named in the squad for the 2007 Vodacom Cup – and even on the bench for the match against the Leopards – he made his first class debut the following season in the same competition when he appeared as a substitute against Western Province. He broke into their Currie Cup squad in 2009, when he made four appearances for them in the 2009 Currie Cup First Division. During the 2012 Vodacom Cup, he played his 50th match for the team.

He was a key member of their 2014 Currie Cup First Division-winning side. He was the top try scorer during the second half of the competition to help his side reach the final. He also played in the final and helped the Griffons win the match 23–21 to win their first trophy for six years.

Representative rugby

In 2012, he was selected for the S.A. Barbarians (North) team against England that toured South Africa as part of the 2012 mid-year rugby test series.
