The chief marshall for the Gaston cup is Tommy Wilson with Michael Thompson, Jim Burns and Jason Burns also on the rota.

The Ballymena Borough Council cup is awarded to the overall winner with the event being decided on an overall points score. The first twenty finishers in each stage are awarded points, this means that the judges need to have their wits about them to have everyone placed.
