Carr joins the Bulls at the back of another successful stint with the Wasps, whom he made a total of 74 appearances for, scoring 15 tries during his multi-season stay with the English Premiership side. The back-rower has enjoyed a fruitful time in the United Kingdom, having also spent an explosive loan spell at Coventry where he dotted down 4 tries in his 11 appearances for the club.
The Bishops School alumni made his early career inroads through the Western Province junior ranks, representing Province in the 2009 Craven Week. Soon after graduating to the South African under-20 side where he would make 4 appearances (scoring 2 tries) during the 2011 IRB Junior World Championship.
