Career

Golden Lions / South African Schools

His first provincial representation came during in 2011, when he was selected for the Template:Rut Golden Lions Under-16 side that played at the Grant Khomo Week competition.

He also represented the Template:Rut Golden Lions two years later, this time in the premier South African high school rugby union competition, the Under-18 Craven Week, held in Polokwane. He appeared in all three of their matches, including the 29–45 defeat in the unofficial final against Template:Rut Western Province.[2] His performance led to his inclusion in the South African Schools side and he made appearances for them in wins against England,[3] France[4] and Wales[5] in August 2013.

Free State Cheetahs / South Africa Under-20

For the 2014 season, Dweba made the move to Bloemfontein to join the Template:Rut Free State Cheetahs. He remained in the thoughts of the national selectors and was called up into the South Africa Under-20 squad for the 2014 IRB Junior World Championship held in New Zealand in June 2014. He came on as a replacement in their second Pool C match against hosts New Zealand, helping them to a 33–24 victory.[6] He was an unused replacement for final pool match against Samoa[7] and in their 32–25 semi-final win against New Zealand.[8] He played off the bench in the final against England, coming on just after half time, but could not prevent South Africa losing the match 20–21 to finish as runners-up in the competition.[9] He returned to domestic action in the latter half of 2014, making two appearances for the Template:Rut Free State U19 side in the 2014 Under-19 Provincial Championship.

After playing a single match for club side Bloemfontein Crusaders in the 2015 SARU Community Cup, Dweba was included in the Template:Rut Free State XV that competed in the 2015 Vodacom Cup. He made his provincial first class debut by starting their opening match of the season against Template:Rut SWD Eagles, but ended on the losing side as SWD ran out 17–33 winners.[10] He made a further three appearances off the bench as the Free State XV finished the group stage in third place in the Southern Section before losing 21–44 to the Template:Rut Blue Bulls in the quarter finals.[11]

He was included in a 37-man training squad for the South African Under-20 team[12] and started a friendly match against a Varsity Cup Dream Team in April 2015.[13] He was included in the squad that toured Argentina in May 2015;[14] he started their first match, a 25–22 win for South Africa,[15] and came on as a replacement in their second match, scoring a try five minutes from time in a 39–28 victory.[16]

Upon the team's return, he was named in the final squad for the 2015 World Rugby Under 20 Championship.[17] He was an unused replacement in their first match of the competition, a 33–5 win against hosts Italy,[18] but started their remaining two matches in Pool B; a 40–8 win against Samoa[19] and a 46–13 win over Australia[20] to help South Africa finish top of Pool B to qualify for the semi-finals with the best record pool stage of all the teams in the competition. Dweba started their semi-final match against England, but could not prevent them losing 20–28 to be eliminated from the competition by England for the second year in succession[21] and played off the bench in their third-place play-off match against France, helping South Africa to a 31–18 win to secure third place in the competition.[22]
