His performances in the latter tournament earned him inclusion in the South African Schools team that played against France, Wales and England in August 2012. Petersen scored a try in each of those matches to ensure that the South African remained unbeaten in the series. Petersen was included in the squad for the 2013 IRB Junior World Championship, but failed to recover from a hamstring injury in time and was replaced by Jesse Kriel. He got a second opportunity the following year when he was included in the South Africa Under-20 side for the 2014 IRB Junior World Championship held in New Zealand. He opened his scoring in that competition just half an hour into the opening match against Scotland, helping his side to a 61–5 victory. He started their second match of the competition, where South Africa beat the hosts and four-time winners New Zealand 33–24, and scored a try in the final minute of their last match of the pool stages to secure a 21–8 victory over Samoa. Petersen contributed largely to South Africa once again beating New Zealand in the semi-final of the competition, this time winning 32–25 and he started his fifth consecutive match of the competition in the final against England; however, this time he finished on the losing side, with England winning the match 21–20 to be crowned champions for the second consecutive year.
