I was there in 2006 as a competitor, and can't recall the process.
There will definitely be twice as many referees, I'm not sure about FIRST staff. When we did it in 2006, we basically a full set of volunteers for both fields, with some people being overall supervisors for both fields.

In 2004 & 2006 matches switched back and forth. I'm not certain how this will be handled this year.

I merged a couple threads to keep all the GTR 2011 discussion in one spot
