he represents the Template:Rut Cheetahs in the Guinness Pro14 and the Template:Rut Free State Cheetahs in the Currie Cup and Vodacom Cup, having previously played for the Template:Rut Blue Bulls.
In July 2013, it was announced that he would join the Template:Rut Cheetahs prior to the 2014 Super Rugby season on a two-year deal.[1] He was subsequently included in the Template:Rut Cheetahs squad for the 2014 Super Rugby season[2] and made his Cheetahs debut in a 21–20 defeat to the Template:Rut Lions in Bloemfontein.[3][4]
On 1 March 2018, Venter travels to England to join with Worcester Warriors, who play in the Aviva Premiership on a two-year contract from the 2018-19 season.[5]
