He immediately progressed to the under-20 team and was at centre-back when they lost the 2023 All-Ireland under-20 final to Cork.

Bourke made his senior team debut in a defeat by Carlow in the 2023 Joe McDonagh Cup final. He claimed a winners' medal in that competition after a defeat of Laois in the 2024 final.
