De Wet represented the Shimlas in the 2013 Varsity Cup season making 6 appearances. He also previously made 4 substitute appearances for the Free State Cheetahs during the 2012 Vodacom Cup.
In April 2013 he moved west to join the Griquas who were suffering a fly-half crisis due to Burton Francis and Francois Brummer being called into the Cheetahs Super Rugby squad. He made his debut in a 47–31 defeat to the Pumas on 5 April 2013[2][3] and made five starts, but was released back to UFS Shimlas before the 2013 Currie Cup Premier Division.[4]
