On April 9th, Caolan made his official debut for the Northern Ireland national futsal team in a match against Andorra.

However, Andorra scored again with only 20 seconds left, making Caolan’s debut bittersweet.
Dobney travelled to Cyprus with his team to compete against Andorra, Cyprus, and Estonia and played in three consecutive official games.
