He represented the Eastern Province Kings in the 2008 Craven Week, which earned him a move to Western Province. After playing for them in the Under-19 and Under-21 Currie Cup competitions, he was included in their 2011 Vodacom Cup squad, making his debut against the Golden Lions on the opening weekend.[2]
After eight appearances in that competition, he was called up into the Stormers squad for the 2011 Super Rugby season. He made his Stormers debut on 30 April 2011 against the Sharks, coming on as a substitute in the 70th minute and scoring a penalty 4 minutes later.[3] He made a further four appearances for the Stormers, including three starts.
