Career
Amateur
He started his career playing amateur club rugby for South Western Districts Premier League side Blanco. In 2012, he was a member of the side that won the competition and qualified for the final edition of the National Club Championships,[2] before that was replaced by the SARU Community Cup.[3]
SWD Eagles
In 2013, SWD Eagles and former Blanco coach Bevin Fortuin included Pedro in his squad for the 2013 Currie Cup First Division competition when he was named on the bench for their Round Ten match against the Falcons in George.[4] He came on as a replacement halfway through the second half and took just ten minutes to open his account, scoring a 70th minute try for the Eagles to help them to a 58–42 victory.[5] He made a further three substitute appearances as the Eagles reached the semi-finals of the competition.
He was utilised more during the 2014 Vodacom Cup competition, starting all eight of the SWD Eagles' matches as they reached the Quarter Finals of the competition. Pedro was a key player in this run, scoring five tries – one each in their matches against Free State XV,[6] Simba XV,[7] Boland Cavaliers,[8] Border Bulldogs[9] and a consolation try in their 84–15 defeat to Griquas in the Quarter Finals.[10]
He enjoyed a second season of Currie Cup rugby in 2014, scoring a try in each of his two appearances during the 2014 Currie Cup qualification tournament against the Border Bulldogs[11] and Griquas[12] respectively. The SWD Eagles failed to qualify to the 2014 Currie Cup Premier Division and qualified for the 2014 Currie Cup Premier Division instead, with Pedro starting in three matches as they reached the semi-finals, where they lost 45–43 to the Griffons.[13]
