WHILE many rugby league clubs are battling to keep players, Caboolture's stocks are growing and president Dan Jenkins is confident of a strong showing from the Snakes in next year's Sunshine Coast Gympie Rugby League A-grade.

The Snakes finished fourth in the revamped A-grade competition this year.

"We'll be thereabouts again. I'm quite confident of that," he said yesterday.

"We've got a very talented pool of youngsters coming through."

Jenkins expected players such as Jackson Moule, Josh Totoro and Blake Mara to have bumper seasons.

"He (Mara) just keeps getting better with experience, as they all do," he said.

The Snakes will likely make a decision on the head coaching role within a week, possibly retaining the incumbent, Don Gailer.

In another positive for the Snakes, who boast more than 500 players, Moreton Bay Regional Council will rebuild the amenities block at their Centenary Lakes venue.

"We're growing," Jenkins said. "I reckon (we're) the largest club on the Coast.

"There's been quite a significant growth in juniors over the last couple of years. We've put quite lot of effort into that space."

The Snakes have in recent times produced players such as Mitch Buckett, who has had a stint at South Sydney, and Paul Aiton and Paul Ivan, who will ply their trade in France.

Jenkins said the ties between his club, the Sunshine Coast Gympie Rugby League and the Sunshine Coast Falcons were stronger than ever.
