Golf Schedule

[Karen(Guest)]

I have 28 golfers - a 15 week schedule

How do I create a schedule so each golfer plays everyone at least once but not more than twice.

Hi Karen,

I assume you are playing foursomes.  First you need to go to  Ed Pegg's web page where you can pick up a schedule for 28 players in 9 rounds.  Assign your 28 golfers randomly to the letters (A to N & a to n) and you have the first 9 weeks.   Now make a different random assignment of players to letters and take the first 6 rounds for the final 6 weeks.  This will meet your criterion of all pairs at least once and at most twice.

Hope that helps,

Ian.

Hi,

I am new and have used your info in the past, however I am putting together as close to a round robin tourney I can for a group of 20 golfers playing eight 9 hole rounds.  My goal is to play in foursomes.  Here is the plan of playing...play 18 holes day 1, then another 18 holes plus 9 holes on day 2 and 3.  That is my 8 rounds.  I am trying to mix up as many players as I can, and trying to get as many players to play with as many foursomes as possible.  My problem is on the 18 hole rounds, I would like to just change opponents within the foursome, as to not hold up play.  I hope this is making since, and if not please ask questions.  Will you be able to offer some assistance?

Thanks a whole lot!!!!
