Shown below is a set of divisions for the next 9 weeks.
This Red, White and Blue scheduling procedure provides a schedule with every couple playing every other couple over the 17-week season. If one of the couples should cancel, the schedule can be modified easily. Designate the couple that cancels, say R4, as the Bye couple. Then whichever couple is scheduled to play couple R4 will receive a Bye in that week. With only 17 couples a Bye must be scheduled for one team each week. This same scheduling procedure can obviously be used for scheduling sports teams and or any other kinds of matches involving 17 or 18 teams. Modifications of the Red, White and Blue algorithm can be employed for 15 or 16 team leagues and other numbers of teams.
