Gaelic Football

Yes, but not twice in succession. While running with the ball you can kick it to your hands, drop it towards your foot and kick it back to your hands. This is called a solo run. You can do that as many times in a row as you like. You are meant to do it at least every 4 steps taken. You can bounce the ball while running, but you must kick it to your hands again at least once, before bouncing it again. So you cannot run basketball style bouncing (you can bounce the ball up to 10 times basketball style but you must not hold the ball between bounces, you then must take a solo before you bounce the ball again) , or you cannot run holding onto the ball, rugby style.

They are loosely connected and there have even been special games created taking rules from each to form a new game, but they are very different. It would actually be easier to list their differences.

Similarities include that they are football games, where a player can both kick and catch the ball. In both you can pass the ball to other players, by kicking it or punching it, but not throwing it. It is not allowed to run with the ball, and the ball must be bounded as a player runs, or can be kicked to the hand. Scores are got by scoring at each end of the field by getting the ball through posts, but the structure of the goalposts and values of scores are very different. Both are very fast games and both are very physical games. They both have a high support level in their respective countries, and both are mainly played just in their respective countries. Where nationals of the two countries live abroad, the game may also be played amongst them, but neither are what would be considered as international sports.

Nobody. Xabi Alonso won a World Cup winners medal with Spain and on a visit to Ireland he played some Gaelic Football with local children, but did not play for a team and win an All-Ireland medal. This is a common myth that some people still actually believe.
