Seals was born in Sandton, but attended Kearsney College in KwaZulu-Natal. He was a member of the Western Province U19 team that played in the 2011 Under-19 Provincial Championship, scoring 48 points in his twelve appearances.[2]
He played rugby for the Stellenbosch University, including making a single appearance in the 2013 Varsity Cup. He joined rivals UCT Ikey Tigers for the 2015 Varsity Cup, making eight starts and top-scoring for his team with 81 points, the third-highest in the competition.[3]
He was included in the Boland Cavaliers squad for the 2015 Currie Cup First Division and made his first class debut by coming on as a replacement in a 24–62 defeat to the Griffons.[4] He made his first of four consecutive starts the following week against the Leopards[5] in a disappointing season for Boland which saw them miss out on the play-offs by finishing in fifth position.[6]
Seals then moved to England to join National League 1 side Darlington Mowden Park. He scored 115 points in 20 appearances for the team,[7] helping them finish the 2015–16 season in sixth position.
He signed a one-year contract with RFU Championship side Yorkshire Carnegie for the 2016–17 season.
