a native of Paarl in the Western Cape of South Africa, Meadon attended Paarl High School between 2017-2019, representing the South Africa Schools team in 2019. He has played with the Sharks U18 & U20 sides, as well as the South Africa U18 & U20 sides, the latter of which he represented at the Worlf Rugby U20s Championship. Meadon headed stateside for the 2022 season, splitting the season between the Houston SaberCats (6 games, 5 starts, 25pts) and Rugby ATL where he was loaned for 4 weeks, playing an additional 2 games (1 start). He spent the majority of the 2023 season with the SaberCats academy team, but still managed to add 9pts in 2 games (both starts) for the MLR side that year.
