Rugby career

Schoolboy rugby

Van Rooyen was born in Port Elizabeth and represented his local Шаблон:Rut province at the 2013 Academy Week and 2014 Craven Week tournaments. Represented Eastern Province at the u18 Provincial Sevens tournament in 2013.

Blue Bulls

After school, he joined the Pretoria-based Шаблон:Rut academy. He progressed through the various age-groups, representing them at Under-19 level in 2015 and Under-21 level in 2016 and 2017.

In 2016, he made his first class debut, coming on as a replacement for the Шаблон:Rut against the Шаблон:Rut in the Currie Cup qualification series.[2] He made two more appearances off the bench — scoring his debut try in the second of those in a 28–23 victory over the Шаблон:Rut[3] — before being named in the starting lineup for the first time for their match against the Шаблон:Rut,[4] and also started their final two matches of the competition.

Van Rooyen once again played for the Шаблон:Rut in 2017, this time in the newly-launched Rugby Challenge competition, making seven appearances.

Southern Kings

In August 2017, Van Rooyen returned to his hometown as he was one of several players loaned from the Blue Bulls to the Шаблон:Rut as they looked to build a squad for their inaugural season in the expanded Pro14 competition.[5] He made his debut in that competition in the team's 30–34 defeat to Welsh side Шаблон:Rut,[6] and also appeared against Шаблон:Rut the following week[7] and against Шаблон:Rut in their match in George.[8]

Van Rooyen was also loaned to the Шаблон:Rut for a part of their 2018 Rugby Challenge campaign, starting their first two matches of the season against Шаблон:Rut[9] and Шаблон:Rut,[10] scoring a try in each of those matches.
