Foley was trained as a scholar in Hartlepool's youth academy, the same academy that brought football the likes of Adam Boyd. As a scholar, he represented the first team on several occasions and became Hartlepool’s youngest ever player when he came on as a substitute against Port Vale at the age of 16. Foley also played a key role in Hartlepool’s Under 19’s Dallas Cup winning team in 2004. Foley has not yet scored a league goal but has three goals in cup competitions,his best a goal against Rotherham in which he cut in from the right hand side and from the edge of the box curled a viscious left footed strike into the top corner.
