| | Texaco - Sportstar |
 | | Introduced in 1970, the Texaco Special Achievement Award is presented annually to those whose contribution to Irish sport is recognised by the judging panel yet who, by virtue of their role within the world of sport, cannot otherwise qualify to win a Texaco Sportstars trophy. |
 | | Hosted by Texaco Country Chairman Paul Martin, the awards ceremony was attended by the Sportstars and their guests along with celebrities from the world of sport, media, business and entertainment as well as senior officials from Texaco. |
 | | Commenting, Texaco Country Chairman Paul Martin said ‘this year’s winners are a reflection of the prominent positions which Irish sports men and women hold, both in domestic and international arenas, and of the high levels of success which they achieve in all forms of competition’. |
