Brendan Maher of Borris-Ileigh and Ronan Steede of Corofin were crowned Club Player of the Year for hurling and Gaelic football respectively.

Tipp star Maher led Borris all the way to the All-Ireland final which they lost to Ballyhale Shamrocks, putting in eye-catching performances against Ballygunner and St Thomas’ in particular. The 2016 All-Ireland winning captain with the Premier saw off fellow nominees TJ Reid and Evan Shefflin to take the top gong at the ceremony at Croke Park.
