Frequently asked questions
How many games in a round-robin?
For n teams, a single round-robin needs n×(n−1)÷2 games across n−1 rounds. A 6-team league = 15 games over 5 rounds; 8 teams = 28 games over 7 rounds; 10 teams = 45 games over 9 rounds.
What happens with an odd number of teams?
Each round needs a bye — one team sits out. The generator applies a rotating bye so every team rests the same number of times. If you want to avoid byes, adding a dummy 'BYE' team to make the total even is common practice in grassroots football.
What is the difference between single and home-and-away?
Single round-robin: each pair plays once. Home-and-away: each pair plays twice, once at each venue — doubling the number of fixtures. Home-and-away is standard in most professional leagues; single round-robin suits shorter grassroots seasons.
How do I handle a team that drops out mid-season?
The most common grassroots approach is to void all results involving that team. Some leagues instead award wins to remaining teams. Check your county FA rules — they publish guidance on this specific scenario.
Can I use this for sports other than football?
Yes — round-robin scheduling works for any head-to-head sport: cricket, basketball, volleyball, table tennis, badminton and more. Just enter your team names and the generator produces the same schedule regardless of sport.
