Round robin schedule

13 team golf league schedule

A 13 team golf league plays a 13 week round robin. Every team meets each of the other 12 teams once, and because 13 is odd, one team sits out each week, so every team gets exactly 1 bye week.

How this schedule works

The pairings come from the circle method. Each week the teams are paired off so that nobody faces the same opponent twice until every team has played every other team. The 13 teams below are called Team 1 to Team 13; swap in your own names in the generator.

The default settings here are 13 weeks, no position rounds, and the league alternating nines. The whole league plays the front nine in odd weeks and the back nine in even weeks. Because each team sits out one week, a team plays the front nine 6 or 7 times and the back nine 5 or 6 times.

Each week's 6 matches are spread across 4 tee time slots, with slot 1 the earliest. Over the season, no team's count for one tee time slot is more than 2 above its count for another.

13 team schedule questions

How many weeks is a 13 team golf league round robin?

13 weeks. With 13 teams, each team plays 12 matches, one against every other team, and has one bye week.

How many matches are played in a 13 team league?

78 matches over one full round robin: 6 matches a week for 13 weeks. The odd team out each week has a bye.

What if our season is longer or shorter than 13 weeks?

A shorter season is a partial round robin, and nobody plays the same opponent twice. A longer season repeats the same 13 weeks of pairings, so after 26 weeks every team has played every other team twice.

How are tee times and nines handled?

The generator spreads each week's matches over 4 tee time slots and balances them over the season: no team's count for one tee time slot is more than 2 above its count for another. Nines can alternate, stay on the front or back, or split the matches between both. This page uses alternating nines.

Can I use this for 13 individual golfers instead of teams?

Yes. In the generator choose individual golfers. Each golfer plays one opponent per week, the same way a team would.

Is the golf league schedule generator free?

Yes. There is no account and no card. It runs in your browser, and you can print the schedule or download it as a CSV file for a spreadsheet.
