Dive Into Pride - David Gough - GAA All Ireland Football Referee
Saturday, 27 June, 2020
David Gough is an All Ireland Football GAA Referee from Co. Meath. David made history in 2019 being the first member of the LGBTQ+ community to referee the senior men's All Ireland Football Final, in addition, to this he was a key factor in the GAA walking in the 2019 Dublin Pride Parade, the first time in the organisation's history to do so. David has been a strong ambassador for the LGBTQ+, especially in the GAA, speaking out against homophobic language and calling for more work to be done in making the GAA a more open and inclusive place for its members. In this episode, we discuss his sporting career in GAA (and in tennis!), 2019 All Ireland Football Final, his own coming out story, the use of homophobic language within the GAA and the GAAs efforts in becoming more inclusive.
