Playing career

Club

McGrath plays his club hurling with Kilmacud Crokes.

After coming to prominence in various juvenile grades, McGrath was a member of the Kilmacud minor hurling team in 2007. He won his first minor championship medal that year following a comprehensive 1–11 to 0–5 defeat of Na Fianna.

Two years later McGrath secured a second championship medal in the minor grade as Kilmacud defeated St. Vincent's by 2–11 to 2–6.

By 2012 McGrath was a member of the Kilmacud Crokes senior hurling team. That year he won a senior championship medal following a 2–10 to 0–9 defeat of Cuala.[1] It was Kilmacud's first championship title in twenty-seven years.

Inter-county

McGrath first came to prominence on the inter-county scene as a member of the Dublin minor hurling team. Hen enjoyed little success in this grade before moving onto the county under-21 hurling team.

In 2011 McGrath won a Leinster medal with the under-21 hurlers, following a 1–18 to 0–11 defeat of Wexford.[2] Dublin later qualified for an All-Ireland showdown with Galway. A 3–14 to 1–10 defeat was McGrath's lot on that occasion.[3]
