Just google "league scheduler" and you get tons of both commercial and free programs to do this if doing it manually is too hard...

It's not that difficult, really.

For a round-robin scedule, write down the players in two columns.
Use the upper left as an "anchor", then rotate all the others one step (direction is not important, just keep rotating in the same direction) for each game-setup.

For example (6 teams, team 1 is anchor, rotating left):

Code: Select all

1st:      2nd:      3rd:      4th:      5th:      6th:  
1  4      1  5      1  6      1  3      1  2      1  4
2  5      4  6      5  3      6  2      3  4      2  5
3  6      2  3      4  2      5  4      6  5      3  6

As you can see, the 6th turn is the same as the 1st turn, you need five games for every team to let everyone meet everyone once.

Now that was easy, wasn't it?
