Union High School hosts second annual FCA Tournament

High school basketball teams from all over North Georgia gathered together for the second annual Union County FCA tournament this week.

Schools represented included Lumpkin, Murphy, Union, Towns, Pickens, Gilmer and Hayesville. Each school brought their Junior Varsity and Varsity teams, along with both men’s and women’s teams.

High school basketball teams from the North Georgia area got the chance to scrimmage one another at the Union County FCA Tournament.

Teams had the opportunity to scrimmage one another beginning on Monday and lasting until Tuesday evening. Junior Varsity teams played primarily on Monday, leading into the Varsity teams on Tuesday. On Tuesday, the Varsity women’s teams played in the morning before men’s teams in the afternoon.

The tournament was split into two locations: Union County High School and the middle school. This division gave teams the opportunity to play more than once, and games could occur simultaneously.

Scrimmages were timed at 40 minutes each with 20 minutes halves and ten minutes between each game.
