McGrath previously picked up the award in 2022/23 after helping Sarsfielsd win their third All-Ireland title in four years.
The AIB GAA Hurling Club Player of the Year is Na Finna sharpshooter Andrew Jamieson-Murphy, who hit victory-sealing goals in their quarter final and final victories. These performances were followed up with a memorable stoppage time winning point in the All-Ireland semi-final against Loughrea. He saved the best performance for the All-Ireland Final, where he scored five points from play and took home the player of the match award. Overall, Andrew finished the campaign with a tally of 2-15, helping Na Fianna to their first AIB GAA Hurling Club All-Ireland title.
The AIB Ladies Gaelic Football Club Player of the Year is Kilkerrin-Clonberne’s Louise Ward. The centre forward kicked an important point against Westport in the Connacht final and followed it up with a point in the All-Ireland final, as Kilkerrin-Clonberne claimed their fourth consecutive AIB All-Ireland Senior Club Championship title.
