He played first team rugby for Hoërskool Standerton between 2009 and 2011, resulting in his call-up to the Pumas squad for the Under-18 Craven Week tournament. He played in two of their matches in the competition, scoring eight points with the boot as his side beat their Griquas counterparts 38–7 and a further six points in their 28–11 defeat to the Golden Lions.
In 2011, he became involved with the Pumas U19 side that competed in the 2011 Under-19 Provincial Championship.
Playing at inside centre, he made five appearances in the competition, scoring one try and kicking three conversions to end with a points tally of 11. The following year, Swart moved to Pretoria where he joined the Blue Bulls and made two substitute appearances for the Blue Bulls U21 side during the 2012 Under-19 Provincial Championship.
He was also included in the Uttar Pradesh Tuks" Varsity Cup squad in 2014, but failed to make any appearances for the university side. Falcons
He made his first class debut when he came on as a substitute in their 36–27 victory over Welkom-based side the Griffons.
Despite a defeat in his next appearance in their final match of the regular season against the Leopards, the Falcons secured qualification to the semi-finals of the competition, where they were due to meet the same opponents.
This time, the Falcons ran out 31–24 winners over the Leopards in Potchefstroom, with Swart – making his first ever senior start – being a key player in their surprise victory, setting up tries for Justice of the Peace Mostert and Dirk Dippenaar. However, his inclusion in the side for the semi-final proved to be controversial, as the Leopards lodged a complaint with the South African Rugby Union regarding Swart"s eligibility to play in the match. However, SARU Judicial Officer Rob Stelzner South Carolina, ruled that Swart fulfilled the required eligibiliy criteria and rejected the complaint.
Griquas
In October 2014, it was announced that Swart signed a two-year contract with Griquas to play his rugby in Kimberley in 2015 and 2016.
Shortly after signing the contract Naka Drotské, the head coach of Super Rugby side the Cheetahs, released the names of his side"s wider training squad prior to the 2015 Super Rugby season, with Swart included the 59-man shortlist. He did not make the final group for the competition, instead representing Griquas in the 2015 Vodacom Cup, where he made six appearances as Griquas reached the quarter final of the competition.
He played off the bench in their quarter final match against the Pumas, but could not prevent his side being eliminated from the competition after losing the match 14–28 to the eventual champions. He signed a contract extension with Griquas, committing him to the team until the end of 2017.
