Career

Youth

He represented Western Province at the 2005 Under-13 Craven Week tournament and the 2008 Under-16 Grant Khomo Week, which led to his inclusion in the Under-16 Elite Squad in the same year. He played in the 2009 Under-18 Academy Week tournament and in an S.A. Academy side in the Under-18 Craven Week tournament in the same year.

He joined the Golden Lions in 2011 and represented them in the 2011 Under-19 Provincial Championship. He was also named in the senior Vodacom Cup squad, but didn't make an appearance.

Western Province

He returned to Western Province in 2012 and was included in their squad for the 2012 Vodacom Cup competition.[2] He made his debut in the opening game of the season, a 51–22 victory over Boland Cavaliers.[3] He came on as a substitute just after half-time and scored a debut try at the end of the game in his only appearance for Western Province.

Eastern Province Kings

After playing for the Free State Cheetahs in the 2012 Under-21 Provincial Championship, he then joined the Eastern Province Kings and was included in their squad for the 2013 Currie Cup First Division season.[4]

He made his debut for the Eastern Province Kings – as well as his Currie Cup debut – in the 37–21 victory over the Griffons on 6 July 2013 in Welkom.[5]

Pumas

On 3 June 2014, the Eastern Province Rugby Union announced that Stemmet would join Nelspruit-based side the Pumas on a loan deal for the 2014 Currie Cup Premier Division.[6] However, he failed to make an appearance for the Pumas.
