Morning All (well it is here in the UK!)

I'm off to Spain in May with 9 chums to play 4 rounds of golf over 4 days.

I know there's no tidy solution to this one, but most grateful for any assistance of how we can play in groups of 3, 3 and 4 over the 4 days with each golfer (hopefully) playing with each of the others.

Many thanks as ever

BTM

There is indeed nothing tidy here.  There is a perfect solution for 9 players which you can find here.  If you truly want everyone to play each other, the only way of achieving this is for two of the players in the foursome to be fixed.  So take the schedule I linked to, and to the four threesomes that contain player I add player J.
