On 200 acres of pristine, forested land on a ridge in Mat-Su Borough, you will find 7th Summit Shooting Park, a facility being developed with a focus on training youth in outdoor experiences, primarily clay target sports, but also archery, smallbore rifle, camping, hiking, and educational opportunities.

Please contact us if you can assist with in-kind donations or funds to develop this Park, which will be utilized by the youth of Alaska and surrounding communities for decades to come!  alaskayess@yahoo.com or (907) 354-5244. 

Clay target sports are not just for the boys! Girls often excel in shotgun sports, and Alaska trains some amazing lady shooters!

Alaska SCTP-YESS is a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization dedicated to promoting youth shooting on a competitive and scholastic level throughout the State of Alaska. Our purpose is to provide funds, equipment, training, and guidance to the youth shooting programs of Alaska, to develop self-confidence, self-esteem, self-reliance, respect, personal discipline, responsibility, citizenship, teamwork, and sportsmanship through regular competition at local, state, and national events.

AlaskaYESS is very fortunate to have the support of numerous organizations, conservation non-profits, businesses, and individuals. Please check out our Affiliates tab for more information on our generous supporters, as well as the Store tab to directly link you to businesses that support our youth.

Our youth clay target sports program would like you to partner with us as we raise our athletes to not only excel in shotgun sports but also to excel in life! Please donate today!

To support a specific team, please contact us at alaskayess@yahoo.com for more information.

AlaskaYESS Varsity Team is a team of athletes who are not chosen for their ability in shotgun sports.  They are chosen for their academic excellence, leadership, community service, and as Ambassadors for AlaskaYESS.  Through our affiliation with USAYESS, we are working on developing collegiate teams here in Alaska, as well as traveling with AlaskaYESS Varsity to compete in collegiate clay target competitions across the US in the High School Division.  This puts our Varsity athletes on the field with collegiate athletes and their coaching staff.

Given Alaska’s vast geography, AlaskaYESS sanctions Trap and Skeet Virtual Competitions every Spring and Fall. These events allow teams from across the state to compete without the need for extensive travel, offering a consistent way to apply practice in a competitive setting. They also serve as a stepping stone toward our State Championship, held annually in the second week of June.

At AlaskaYESS, we believe that practice is the foundation of success—but it’s through competition that practice truly pays off. That’s why we provide a wide range of events throughout the year, designed to challenge our athletes, showcase their progress, and reinforce the importance of consistent training.

While time on the range sharpens skills, competitions simulate real-world pressure, helping athletes learn how to perform when it counts. They teach focus, discipline, and resilience—qualities that extend far beyond the shooting sports.

In addition to virtual events, we host Regional Tournaments, including the long-standing Southeast Trap Tournament in Juneau. For athletes seeking higher-level competition, we offer Varsity tournaments throughout the school year, covering:

• Trap & Skeet
• Advanced Trap & Skeet
• Sporting Clays

These tournaments give student-athletes the opportunity to compete with peers across the state, track their progress, and experience the rewards of hard work and dedication.
