Question from Steve: Hi, I need a schedule for 16 golfers over 15 weeks, where each golfer is paired with a different golfer each week and plays 4 matches per week against 4 different pairs (each pair does not have to play each week) |
Steve,
With this schedule:
http://mathcentral.uregina.ca/QQ/database/QQ.09.08/h/bill4.html
after 5 weeks every 2 players have been in the same group once. Use the schedule three times. For each foursome a, b, c, d:
* the first time through a plays b and c plays d
* the second time a plays c and b plays d
* the third time a plays d and b plays c
Hopefully I’ve read your message correctly and this is what you’re looking for.
