Hi there.
I am sure it's simple, but still:
A schedule for seven players, playing seven games in tripples. That should add up to all players playing together two times, and against each other three times.
Could you make a scheme?
Thanks in advance,
Klaus

Hi Klaus,
There is a simple cyclic solution to this, so given the first round, the other rounds are formed just by rotating through the players in order. For example:
Bye
(1 2 4) v (3 5 6) 7
(2 3 5) v (4 6 7) 1
(3 4 6) v (5 7 1) 2
(4 5 7) v (6 1 2) 3
(5 6 1) v (7 2 3) 4
(6 7 2) v (1 3 4) 5
(7 1 3) v (2 4 5) 6
