Nine of the eleven teams were present at the march past.

The younger Eustace also made the first pass to officially set off the tournament.
In the adjudication of the awards, it was Nice Radio Clinchers which walked away with the Best Dressed Team Award, ahead of Sea Operations Nar Fren Dem and OSCC Owia Super Strikers, in that order.
