I have to prepare a schedule of 8 players - 2 courts and 7 rounds.  Can you help?

Hello,

An 8-man round robin requires 28 matches for all players to play once against all others.  7 rounds on 2 courts only allows for 14 matches.  So at best 4 of the players would have 4 matches and the other 4 players would have 3 matches.  Is this the schedule you're looking for?
