Early years
Having previously played for his local team VV Monnickendam, Kaars moved to FC Volendam at the age of eleven.

Helmond Sport
On 7 April 2022, Helmond Sport announced the signing of Kaars on a three-year contract, with him joining the club from the 2022–23 season.[10] He made his competitive debut for the club on the first matchday of the season, playing the full game against NAC Breda which was lost 1–0.[11] His first goal came in the following match against Jong AZ on 12 August, where he made the equaliser as Helmond suffered a 3–1 home defeat at De Braak.[12] On 2 September, Kaars scored a brace in a 3–0 victory against Almere City.[13][14]
