Title: Golf Partial Round Robin - 8 golfers, 5 rounds
Post by: GolfRR on July 09, 2013, 12:56:05 PM

I have 8 golfers playing 5 rounds. Each round has 2 foursomes each with 2 two-player teams. I want everyone to have a different team partner for each round, play with every other player in two or three rounds and never have the same three players together in more than one round. Is this even possible?

There is a possible schedule here, but the answer to your question is that 'every other player at least twice' is not possible.
