A Finn Harps Under-15 player, Bonner came through the ranks at Bonagee United and Keadue Rovers before. Bonner also played for the Harps Under-14s this year.

The 2011-born team will make their debuts in an Ireland jersey on Tuesday, October 28, before facing the same opposition two days later, with both games taking place at the Albir Garden Resort.
