Guides › Fixture generator
Type your team names, one per line, and get a fair round-robin fixture list: every team plays every other team once (or twice), nobody plays twice in a week, and home and away are shared out.
It uses the circle method, the standard way to draw a round robin. With an even number of teams, every team plays every week. With an odd number, one team rests each week, and every team rests the same number of times. With six teams playing once, that's five weeks of three games.
| Teams | Weeks (play once) | Weeks (home and away) |
|---|---|---|
| 4 | 3 | 6 |
| 6 | 5 | 10 |
| 8 | 7 | 14 |
| 10 | 9 | 18 |
| 12 | 11 | 22 |
A fixture list is the easy part. The work is moving games when a team can't make it, getting scores in and keeping the table right. See how to start a 5-a-side league.
