Career
Youth
He joined the Eastern Province Academy after school and started all eight of their matches during the 2012 Under-19 Provincial Championship, scoring tries in their games against the Falcons U19[2] and against Griquas U19 in the semi-final of the competition.[3] He helped the side reach the final of Division B of the series, where they lost to Border U19.[4]
He appeared on four occasions for the Eastern Province U21 side during the 2013 Under-21 Provincial Championship and scored a try in their Round Three match against Griquas[5] to help them reach the final of the competition, beating Boland U21 in the final but failing to win promotion to Division A, losing to Border U21 in the promotion play-offs with Hector being an unused substitute in that match.[6]
He was involved more in their 2014 Under-21 Provincial Championship campaign, starting all their seven pool matches, ending up on the winning side in all of those. He missed out on the semi-final match, but returned for the final (which was the fourth consecutive time that Eastern Province U21 reached the Division B final), coming on as a substitute to help them beat SWD U21 46–3.[7] He also appeared as a substitute as they beat Border U21 64–9 the following week to win promotion to Division A of the competition.[8]
Eastern Province Kings
He made his senior debut for the Eastern Province Kings in the 2014 Vodacom Cup by starting in their 17–10 opening day defeat to Kenyan side Simba XV.[9] His only other appearance came three weeks later in a 22–56 defeat to Western Province.[10]
