A right-arm fast-medium bowler, Eckhoff played one first-class and one List A cricket match for Otago in the 1975-76 season. In his List A match against Canterbury, he took the only two Canterbury wickets to fall, those of Barry Hadlee and Peter Coman.[1]
In ten years of A grade cricket in Dunedin he took 427 wickets at an average of 17.2. He moved to Australia after accepting an offer from the Sturt Cricket Club in Adelaide. He was a member of the Sturt team that won the premiership in 1979. He left Sturt in 1981 to take up a playing coach position at Port Adelaide Cricket Club, and in 1985 returned to Sturt.
