WHO ARE WE?

South Carolina Youth Education in Shooting Sports (SCYESS) is a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization. SCYESS is the state’s only all-inclusive provider of shooting sports in elementary through high school as an extracurricular co-ed activity. SCYESS’s priorities are to provide a safe and fun family environment under annually certified adult supervision. SCYESS oversees American Skeet, American Trap, Sporting Clays, Olympic Skeet, and Olympic Trap at local, state, tournaments, and virtual leagues across the state. 
SCYESS is also proud to be partnered with the nation’s largest collegiate clay target program, the Association of College Unions International (ACUI) thus providing a bridge into collegiate marksmanship programs. Both SCYESS and ACUI are national partners with the MidwayUSA Foundation and, therefore, are able to provide teams with perpetual endowment funding. 
SCYESS is proud to partner with the Midway USA Foundation,  USA Youth Education in Shooting Sports (USAYESS), and wildlife conservation organizations to help youth grow their shooting program in order to help them become self-sufficient and ensure longevity.
