One of those were in their 23–19 semi-final win over the Golden Lions U21s,[7] but he didn't feature in the final, in which the Blue Bulls beat Western Province U21 20–10 in Cape Town.

He made his first class debut in May 2015, starting the Sharks XV's Vodacom Cup match against the Eastern Province Kings in Port Elizabeth,[9] his only appearance in the competition.

He made seven appearances for the Sharks U21 in the 2015 Under-21 Provincial Championship, as the team finished in third place to qualify for the title play-offs,[10] coming on as a replacement in their semi-final defeat to the Free State U21s.

[12] His team won seven of their eight matches and would have finished joint-top of the log with Wits,[13] but they had 12 points deducted for fielding an ineligible player, therefore missing out on the title play-offs and a shot at promotion to the Varsity Cup.

[15] He was also included in the Sharks squad for the Currie Cup Premier Division, and he made his debut at that level in a 27–34 defeat to Western Province in Round Five of the competition.
