He also served as president of the Montagskicker (Monday players) for a long time before handing over the reins to Markus Hörwick.
FC Bayern president Herbert Hainer: "Reinhard Böker has carried FC Bayern in his heart for decades. Whether as chairman of our honorary council, as long-standing president of the legendary Montagskickers or as a member and fan - you can always feel his passion for our club. We are very grateful to him for his commitment and wish him all the best, good health and happiness on this milestone birthday."
The honorary council is made up of four to seven club members and is responsible for tasks such as mediating conflicts of honour, ruling on complaints and disciplinary measures, and examining motions for the members' general meeting. Böker's deputy is Marcus Preißinger, the other members are former FCB captain Werner Olk, former players Reinhold Baier, Georg Bogeschdorfer and Ludwig Landerer as well as Heiner Jüngling, the German record champions' member number 1.
