COFFS Harbour's best rugby league talent will soon be under the microscope of NRL talent scouts.
The Gold Coast Titans and Coffs Harbour Comets have joined forces to create a rugby league academy for the region's rising stars.
The partnership will involve Titans coaching staff working with Comets players aged 16 and above, putting them through NRL-standard training sessions.
Incoming Comets coach Col Speed said it was a great opportunity for the club.
"The Titans partnership can only be positive for the club," he said. "Giving the younger players in the club a clear pathway will assist their development."
The Titans' Michael Close said the club looked forward to the new venture.
"Coffs Harbour has for many years been a rugby league stronghold and this is why the Titans have made a commitment to developing talent in the region," he said.
