Goulding first appeared at adult inter-county level when he was drafted onto the

1954 All-Ireland SHC final.[10][11]

Goulding was absent for Cork's

All-Ireland SFC final defeat when they lost to Louth by two points.[14][15] Goulding continued to line out with the Cork senior football team until 1958 and retired from senior inter-county hurling in 1960
