The game is doubles Pickleball where 2 players play against 2 others. (2 players sit out each game.) There are 2 courts booked. 12 players are registered. 6 men, 6 women. It is desirable but not essential that there are 3 men and 3 women assigned to each court for the first hour, and then 3 players from each court switch courts after one hour.
These games are played weekly for 8 months. 34 games.
What is the best way to mix the combinations of 6 players per court in the first, and second hour, so that most people get to play each other roughly the same number of times?
I have been tabulating the players who play together each hour, manually, and try to assign the next game in a way that tends to balance out the partnerships.
Thanks for your interest and attention.
