Heerenveen

Smit played youth football for amateur clubs FC Castricum and ADO '20.[2] In 2014, he was scouted to the youth academy of SC Heerenveen.[3] He made his professional debut in the first team on 21 December 2019 in a 1–1 draw at home against Heracles Almelo. He came on as a substitute for Anders Dreyer in the 79th minute.[4][5]

On 20 July 2021, Smit signed with Eerste Divisie club Telstar. That same evening he made his unofficial debut against Quick Boys in pre-season. He also scored his first goal in the 63rd minute in that match.[6] He made his official debut on 6 August in a 1–1 draw against FC Emmen at home at BUKO Stadion.[7] On 10 September, Smit scored his first goal in the 72nd minute of the league match against Almere City and thereby secured a 1–1 draw after having come on as a substitute for Cas Dijkstra in the 58th minute.[8][9]

On 24 January 2023, Smit made his first start of the season, and scored his first professional hat-trick, strongly contributing to Telstar's 5–3 league victory against MVV.[10][11]

Sligo Rovers

On 15 March 2024, Smit signed for League of Ireland Premier Division side Sligo Rovers after spending time on trial and impressing manager John Russell.[12] He made his debut for the club the following day, replacing Connor Malley in the 78th minute of a 3–1 league win over Drogheda United.[13][14] He made 11 appearances for the club before it was announced on 29 May that he had left the club by mutual consent due to personal issues.[15]
