Down manager Pete McGrath selected Coulter to make his debut for the senior team that year, despite his youth.

Benny was player/manager of Mayobridge GAA in the 2017 and 2018 campaign alongside Francie Poland.

One of his controversial goals was against Kildare as Kildare players thought it was a square ball denying them a place in the All - Ireland Final Coulter was appointed Down minor football team manager ahead of the 2023 season.
