How do you run it?
- Write a name next to each number. Any order works: the numbers are labels, not a ranking.
- Play the rounds in order, every match to the same number of points. Each player scores the points their team wins.
- Two matches on the same court play one after the other.
- Add up each player's points at the end. The Americano rules cover scoring and ties.
How fair is this schedule?
- Everyone partners every other player exactly once.
- Everyone faces every other player exactly twice.
- Everyone plays 7 matches.
- Every round has 2 matches for 1 court, so it takes as long as 2 matches in a row.
- Waiting is not spread evenly: in this table some players wait for a court in 7 rounds, others in 3 rounds. On a shared court you choose which match goes first, so swap them to even it out.
