Who We ARE
SCYAK (South Carolina Yak) is the flagship club of The YAK Group (TYG) — a developing network of grassroots kayak-bass trails across the Southeast.
We’re built on:
Professional, well-run events
High-quality media coverage
Angler-first rules and structure
A “rising tide” mentality that lifts every angler, club, and sponsor involved
From local trail events to winner-takes-all shootouts, SCYAK is the model club the rest of the region is watching.

We’re not guessing about growth — we’re tracking it.
Tournaments
Full trail events + specialty series
Strong angler turnout and repeat participation
Multiple lakes across the region

Long-term goal: a true Southeastern super-trail
Why We’re Not Just Another Kayak Club
Most kayak clubs run events.
We’re building an ecosystem.
We’re investing in:
The TYG Mobile App
A dedicated platform for anglers and clubs. Event registration, live standings, club news, sponsor visibility, and — in the future — a full scoring and judging engine owned by TYG, not a third party.In-House 3D Gear Manufacturing
We design and print custom kayak and tournament gear: identifier stands, wall systems, sunshade adapters, mounts, branded keychains, and more. Sponsors can be featured on physical gear that anglers actually use.Multi-State Growth Roadmap
SCYAK is phase one. TNYAK, NCBASS, and additional state clubs will follow, all under a consistent brand, ruleset, and presentation standard. Sponsors plug into one system and reach multiple states.
This combination of events + media + technology + gear is what sets The YAK Group apart.
Where Sponsor Dollars Actually Go
Your support is reinvested directly into growing the sport and the platform:
Angler payouts and event hardware
Youth and entry-level angler programs
Media production and coverage of events
Development of The YAK Group mobile app
Expansion of multi-state trails under TYG
3D gear development for better, safer, more efficient kayak setups
We’re not using sponsor money to coast.
We’re using it to build something that will still matter 10 years from now.
