In spite of never having played in the minor, under-21 or junior grades with Meath, Foley was added to the senior panel for the 1986 championship. Over the course of the next seven years, he won two All-Ireland medals as part of a two-in-a-row in 1987 and 1988. Foley also won five Leinster medals and two National Football League medals.
As a member of the Leinster inter-provincial team in 1988 Foley won his sole Railway Cup medal.
In retirement from playing Foley became involved in team management and coaching. He was manager of the Clonard team that won their first county junior championship title in forty years in 2011. Foley also served as a selector with the Meath minor team.[2]
