Underage rugby

He was selected for the Ireland U20 team in 2017, a year where they struggled, finishing fourth in the under-20 Six Nations and tenth in the World Championship.^{[citation needed]}

Professional career

Dowling was part of the Celtic Cup-winning Leinster 'A' side in 2018, a year in which he was also part of Lansdowne's historic clean sweep of the All-Ireland League, All-Ireland Cup, Leinster Senior League and Leinster Senior Cup.
