Thanks to all the contributors and moderators of this forum!

I have found several balanced solutions in this forum and the one I chose doesn't work too well starting in round 11 (1 team in round 11 repeats from round 9, etc.).

We have 7 players that play for 2 hours on 1 court and my goals are to find a schedule for 13 rounds of play that mixes up partners and opponents "fairly" with the following goals:
1. Players pair with each other at least once, but 2 times max.
2. Players oppose each other at least twice
3. No player sits out more than 1 round
4. No player plays more than 2 games in a row
5. All players have as close to the same number of games in rounds 10-13
6. A "team" of players do not repeat playing together within at least 3 rounds

I'd appreciate any help! Thanks!
