Limerick's All-Ireland winner Aaron Gillane has been named the PwC GAA/GPA Hurling Player of the Month for August, with Tyrone's Colm Cavanagh taking the Football award.
Gillane, who is currently basking in the glory of the Shannonsiders' first Liam MacCarthy triumph in 45 years, was recognised for his brilliant performance against Cork in the All-Ireland semi-final where he contributed 13 points in total.
Cavanagh was to the fore as Mickey Harte’s Tyrone side overcame Monaghan in their All-Ireland semi-final encounter. That win set up a showdown with Dublin the decider on 2 September.
Also present at the PwC's head offices in Dublin to collect their July awards were Conor McManus (Monaghan) and Peter Duggan (Clare).
