Title: 10 Teams/3 Courts
Post by: scourge22 on August 03, 2008, 03:55:48 PM

I took your 10 team round robin format and spread it over 3 courts for a volleyball tournament.  It seems to work fine.  Is there another way to accomplish this?

I assume you have to split each round into two halves: three games in the first and the last two in the 2nd half and repeat eight more times.  Are there any special requests such as keeping the number of times a team moves from the 1st to 2nd half (or vice versa) to a minimum?

Nothing other than everyone plays each other once.  It's a 1 day multi-team scrimmage.  I usually have either 10 or 12 teams with 3 courts available.

One of these should do the trick.  The first three columns would be in the 1st half of each round.

         9 or 10 players
Rd:             Pairings:
 1:    1-10  6-5   9-2   7-4   8-3 
 2:   10-6   2-1   5-7   3-9   4-8 
 3:    2-10  7-6   1-3   8-5   9-4 
 4:   10-7   3-2   6-8   4-1   5-9 
 5:    3-10  8-7   2-4   9-6   1-5 
 6:   10-8   4-3   7-9   5-2   6-1 
 7:    4-10  9-8   3-5   1-7   2-6 
 8:   10-9   5-4   8-1   6-3   7-2 
 9:    5-10  1-9   4-6   2-8   3-7 


            11 or 12 players
Rd:                Pairings:
 1:    1-12  7-6  11-2   8-5  10-3   9-4 
 2:   12-7   2-1   6-8   3-11  5-9   4-10
 3:    2-12  8-7   1-3   9-6  11-4  10-5 
 4:   12-8   3-2   7-9   4-1   6-10  5-11

 6:   12-9   4-3   8-10  5-2   7-11  6-1 
 7:    4-12 10-9   3-5  11-8   2-6   1-7 
 8:   12-10  5-4   9-11  6-3   8-1   7-2 
 9:    5-12 11-10  4-6   1-9   3-7   2-8 
10:   12-11  6-5  10-1   7-4   9-2   8-3
