Steenkamp was a member of the Leicester Tigers youth system before returning to his native South Africa, where he has been playing for the Pumas since 2005. In their opening match of the 2014 Currie Cup Premier Division season, a 28–21 victory over the Free State Cheetahs, Steenkamp made his 150th appearance for the Nelspruit-based side and marked the occasion by scoring a first-half try for his side.
