Career

Bourke first played hurling and Gaelic football to a high standard as a student at Coláiste Choilm in Tullamore. [1] His performances for the school resulted in his inclusion on the combined Offaly Schools team which won the Leinster PPS SAHC title in 2023. [2] After progressing through the juvenile and underage ranks with the Ballinamere club, Bourke made his senior team debut in 2022.

Bourke first appeared on the inter-county scene during an unsuccessful two-year tenure with the Offaly minor hurling team in 2020 and 2021. [3] He immediately progressed to the under-20 team and was at right wing-forward when they lost the 2023 All-Ireland under-20 final to Cork. [4] Bourke was team captain a year later and collected a winners' medal after beating Tipperary by 2–20 to 2–14 in the All-Ireland final. [5]

Bourke made his senior team debut during the 2024 National Hurling League. [6]
