Blacker joined the Pontypridd squad as one of the Cardiff Rugby Academy allocation for the 2016 - 2017 season.  Impressing in the Welsh Premiership he was added to Wales U20 side in January 2017 that would compete at the U20 Six Nations tournament.

The Pontypridd born scrum half made seven appearances for the Blue and Blacks either side of a brief loan spell with the Dragons where he made two appearances in 2017, scoring the one try on debut. Blacker featured for Wales 7s on the world series circuit and joined the Scarlets ahead of the 2019-20 campaign.
