MORRISTOWN, NJ — The Morristown PBA is hosting a charity basketball tournament to benefit the Morristown Neighborhood House following the Flagler Street Fire.

The three-on-three tournament will take place at the newly reopened Cauldwell Playground on Saturday, July 20 at 10 a.m. Players 15 and older are welcome to register as individual or as teams. Each team is guaranteed to play at least two games; first to 11 points wins.

Plans for the tournament began shortly after a fire at the apartments on Flagler Street displaced several families. "As clothing and housing needs had already been met by to the generous efforts of our community, spearheaded by the Town of Morristown and the Morristown FMBA Local 43, the decision was made to host a 3 on 3 basketball tournament that could raise funds to be used by the community," the PBA said.
