Nicknamed Shadow by his former team-mates at Pretoria-based franchise the Bulls because of his acceleration and speed, van den Heever also provides bulk on the wing. He has an accomplished aerial game and is adept at chasing down kicks.

Van Den Heever joined Irish side Munster in November 2013 and made his debut that same month against Newport Gwent Dragons in the Pro 12, but sustained a broken bone in his hand during the game. He has also represented the province at ‘A’ level – 4 appearances – and at the inaugural Limerick World Club 7s at Thomond Park in August 2014.

In May 2016, he announced his departure from the club and signed with Yamaha Jubilo.
