Golf Scheduling
Question
You answered the scheduling question for a 10 team playing for 9 weeks but what about 18 teams playing for 18 weeks. I have also worked on this for hours making up a spreadsheet. I follow the team 1 plays team 2 and so forth but it gets real complicated by the time I get to around team 5 or 6. Is there a simple way to do it. For example, starting with Team 1 plays Team 2 and then Team 1 plays Team 18 and so on? HELP
Answer
Dear Lorraine, thanks for the question. Every year about this time, I'll get several questions all these lines. I've never found the perfect answer, but a great resource for the challenge is a website I've listed below. You can simply punch in the number of teams and let it calculate the matchups. I believe it's even printable quite easily. Thanks again for asking, good luck and remember...
Love the game,
