I can follow the 16 team bracket.  However, I am looking to set up a round robin shuffle board league where your partner and opponents change every week!

I am having trouble getting an even distribution.  I am using the 16 team as a template, but the opponents get uneven!  Can you help me out?

Mike,

I think the shuffle board league you are wanting is a whist schedule for 16 players like the one below.

It uses the letters A to P to represent the players.

      Match 1          Match 2          Match 3          Match 4
   -------------    -------------    -------------    -------------
   (A B) v (G L)    (C D) v (F J)    (H K) v (I O)    (E M) v (N P)
   (A C) v (H M)    (D E) v (G K)    (I L) v (J P)    (F N) v (O B)
   (A D) v (I N)    (E F) v (H L)    (J M) v (K B)    (G O) v (P C)
   (A E) v (J O)    (F G) v (I M)    (K N) v (L C)    (H P) v (B D)
   (A F) v (K P)    (G H) v (J N)    (L O) v (M D)    (I B) v (C E)
   (A G) v (L B)    (H I) v (K O)    (M P) v (N E)    (J C) v (D F)
   (A H) v (M C)    (I J) v (L P)    (N B) v (O F)    (K D) v (E G)
   (A I) v (N D)    (J K) v (M B)    (O C) v (P G)    (L E) v (F H)
   (A J) v (O E)    (K L) v (N C)    (P D) v (B H)    (M F) v (G I)
   (A K) v (P F)    (L M) v (O D)    (B E) v (C I)    (N G) v (H J)
   (A L) v (B G)    (M N) v (P E)    (C F) v (D J)    (O H) v (I K)
   (A M) v (C H)    (N O) v (B F)    (D G) v (E K)    (P I) v (J L)
   (A N) v (D I)    (O P) v (C G)    (E H) v (F L)    (B J) v (K M)
   (A O) v (E J)    (P B) v (D H)    (F I) v (G M)    (C K) v (L N)
   (A P) v (F K)    (B C) v (E I)    (G J) v (H N)    (D L) v (M O)

I am not familiar with shuffle board so I guess I could be wrong. You're not -- Richard

Ian.
