How the Spreadsheets Work

Every team is assigned a letter as the team name and every field time slot is assigned a number. All you have to do is substitute the team name for the designated letter and the time and field for the time slot number and, presto, a schedule!

Every schedule comes in four versions

Grid 1 is a grid in which each team can see who its opponent is in any given week. Grid 2 shows each team's opponent, week by week. Grid 3 shows the weekly match-ups, with weeks on the x axis and time slots on the y axis. Grid 4 is Grid 3 transposed, with weeks on the y axis and time slots on the x axis.

What about teams playing twice a week?

Easy - just make week 1 the first game of the week, week 2 the second game and so on.

What do I do about odd numbers of teams?

Alternative 1. Take the grid for the number of teams plus one. Allocate one of the team letters to "Bye". The team playing the "Bye" team gets a bye that week.

How about an odd number of teams that play two games a day?

It can be done! Suppose you have seven teams. Take the schedule for weeks 1 and 2. Have the two bye teams play each other. Repeat for weeks 3 and 4 and weeks 5 and 6. You may have to make some game time adjustments to avoid teams play too close together. Here is an example.

What times do teams play?

The schedules do not give game times. That's obviously a matter for each region. What Grids 3 and 4 do is to give match-ups with numbered time slots, which you simply replace with the actual times.

Home and Away

Grids 3 and 4 also show home and away teams (home first). So far as possible, Grids 3 and 4 balance the number of home and away games. However, if you only get part way through, the number of home and away games may sometimes get slightly out of balance and this has to be fixed manually.
