Rob Baillie is the head coach of the squad. The offensive unit will be headed by quarterbacks Foster Martens, Jamie Dzikowicz and John Remple. There are a strong trio of receivers in Trysten Dyce, Jayden McKoy and Kaanon Felix. Moreover, tailback Alex Taylor, fullback Blair Mattes and running back Liam Hayne will be counted upon to execute the offensive game strategy effectively.
On the defensive side of the ball, Team Manitoba will be led by the depth they possess at the linebacker position, spearheaded by Leon Cenerini and Chris Pereira. Additionally, defensive linemen Mason Klein and Josh Toledo will be one to watch for on the field. As for special teams, Ian Lee has proven to be a consistent, yet reliable kicker.
Two possible players that could prove to be surprising contributors in the tournament for the team are offensive lineman Mason Dick and running back Jayde Erasmo.
