Title: 2 teams of 5 players
Post by: rowanklein on January 22, 2024, 06:17:00 PM

Have a scenario where there are 2 teams of 5 players. 

Teams
HA, HB, HC, HD & HE
AA, AB, AC, AD & AE

Games are played in pairs from same team, against pair from other team.

Constraints.
- Play with each partner once (4 games each, 5 rounds including bye)
- Play against each opposition at least once, but not more than twice. 

Is there a soultion for this?

My guess is that this is impossible.  You could take the 10 player schedule in reply#3 here (https://www.devenezia.com/round-robin/forum/?topic=909) and rearrange the four players in each game so that it is two H players vs two W players.  This will give you some of what you want apart from the having one missing opposition player.
