Shamrocks Acquire Manns in Trade with Nanaimo

Victoria - The Shamrocks are pleased to announce that, in a trade with the Nanaimo Timbermen, we have acquired the Canadian playing rights to Zach Manns in exchange for the playing rights of Noah Manning.

Manns, 27, is originally from Victoria having played minor lacrosse with the Saanich Tigers. He is a 6’ 2”, 190lb left-handed offence player who has averaged 4.1 points per game in his four seasons in Senior A lacrosse, and was the Shamrocks leading scorer in the 2025 campaign with 26 goals and 27 assists, adding up to 53 points in 16 games.

As a condition of last year's trade, his playing rights reverted back to Nanaimo at the end of the season; however this trade has no such clause, bringing him back to Victoria on a permanent basis.

The Victoria Shamrocks will be opening their 2026 season in late May, with a full schedule to be announced by the Western Lacrosse Association in early February. Season tickets are on sale now with all the information at VictoriaShamrocks.com.
