Texaco Hurler of the Year
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Texaco Hurler of the Year is a hurling award, created in 1958, that honours the achievements of a hurler of outstanding excellence. The award is part of the Texaco Sportstars Awards, in which Irish sportspeople from all fields are honoured.
The award is presented annually to the hurler considered to have performed the best over the previous year in the Hurling Championship. Voting for the award is undertaken by a select group of journalists from television and the print media. The award itself, standing 14 inches high, is one of the most coveted, prestigious and sought-after accolades in Irish sport.
