Greeff was born in Vanderbijlpark. After representing the Falcons and Leopards at youth level, he was included in the South Africa Under-20 that competed at the 2014 IRB Junior World Championship in New Zealand. He scored two tries in their 61–5 victory over Scotland,^[2] another in a 33–24 victory over the hosts^[3] and also played in their semi-final victory over New Zealand.^[4]
