Playing career
Inter-county
McGoldrick was part of the Derry Minor side that won the 2002 Ulster Minor Championship and All-Ireland Minor Championship.[1]
He was first called up to the Derry Senior panel in November 2005 for the 2006 season, after impressive performances for Bellaghy en route to the Ulster Senior Club Championship final.[2]
He established himself as a "first class corner-back" in Derry's run to the 2007 All-Ireland Championship quarter-final.[3] A troublesome hamstring injury however, meant he played very little football in 2008.[3]
McGoldrick is currently traveling around Australia[3][4] and will definitely miss some of the 2009 season. The Irish News has reported he will stay for a year.[3]
