Kane Elgey (Photo: Adam Heads)[/caption]Gold Coast Titans halfback Kane Elgey been rewarded for his 2014 form by signing a first grade contract with the club.
While his future looked uncertain less than a week ago, the 2014 NYC Team of the Year member has signed a one-year deal with his home town club.
The Tugun Seahawks junior, who represented the Australian Schoolboys while attending Palm Beach Currumbin, had a fantastic year despite the Titans finishing 15th.
Elgey finished the year as the Titans' leading try scorer, with 16 tries, and leading point scorer, with 124 points.
Also re-signed for a further season is Titans NYC graduate Tom Kingston, who made his NRL debut this year.
Kingston is also a local junior, playing his junior football with the Tweed Heads Seagulls.

While Elgey remains on the Coast for another year, his Titans co-captain Jahrome Hughes is still without a club for 2015.
A Tugun junior himself, Hughes has been told he doesn't have a future at the Titans.
“Jahrome played first grade as an 18-year-old (but) they don’t think he’s up to it.”
Woolf said Hughes was a “specialist fullback” who needed a clearer pathway to the No. 1 jersey.
