8 golfers - 5 rounds

[News4rg]

I'm planning a golf holiday with 8 customers and they will be playing 5 rounds.

Knowing they will play in 2 groups of four, what is the best grouping solution so that each player plays with each other the same or similar number of times.

Thanks in advance for your help!

There are no good solutions to this (or the 6 player problem).  Some pairs of players will play together in a foursome just once, while other pairs will play together three times.
