Jack Boothman
Jack Boothman was the 31st President of the Gaelic Athletic Association (GAA) between 1994 and 1997. He was an active member of his local Blessington GAA club in County Wicklow.〔(BBC SPORT: Boothman warns of dangers )〕
He was elected as president of the Association and took up the position in 1994. Boothman championed the abolition of Rule 21, which debarred members of the British security forces from joining the GAA.〔(''Irish Examiner'' ), 17 November 2001 "Taoiseach urges GAA to abolish Rule 21"]〕
However, Boothman opposed the opening up of Croke Park to international soccer and rugby, feeling that it would be a "disastrous mistake" for the GAA to benefit competing sports so significantly.〔
A member of the Church of Ireland and past pupil of The King's Hospital, Dublin, Boothman was the first Protestant president of the GAA.〔(BOOTHMAN SEEKS TO ESTABLISH GAA DOMINANCE ), BNET.com〕 He still holds the position of President within his own local club.
