He got his first taste of first class rugby in 2018, for the Template:Rut Blue Bulls XV in the Rugby Challenge.

In 2019, Loubser moved to Port Elizabeth to join the Template:Rut Southern Kings Pro14 franchise. He made his Pro14 debut in the opening round of the 2019–20 Pro14 season, starting their match against the Template:Rut Cardiff Blues at fullback,[4] and scoring a try in their 27–31 defeat.[5]
