Pickleball Random Doubles with 8 people or 16

[PickleballerForeve]

Dear All

Doing a Pickleball tournament

Have 16 men. Would like to do a round robin first before picking partners.

Scenario One: Make two EVEN groups of 8 people.

Once we have 8 people in each pool. What is the schedule so everyone plays with one person ONCE and does not play against one another too too many times.

Scenario Two: One BIG pool of 16 people....Play with each other once. What would be the schedule. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance!

If you click on the schedules link near the top of this page, and then choose 8 or 16 items and 'Whist', then you will get some suitable doubles schedules where players play with each other once, and against each other twice.
