Awards All-Star Team The media selected the following curlers as All-Stars:[14]
Bernie Sparkes became the first player to be selected to the all-star team three times as he was selected the two previous years as well.
Ross G.L. Harstone Award The Ross Harstone Award was presented to the player chosen by their fellow peers as the curler who best represented Harstone's high ideals of good sportsmanship, observance of the rules, exemplary conduct and curling ability.[15]
Records Prince Edward Island's 17-16 extra end victory over Newfoundland in Draw 11 tied the record for the highest scoring game in Brier history.[16] 1932 with Ontario's 17-16 win over New Brunswick and in 1957 with Saskatchewan's 30-3 victory over New Brunswick.
