8-team round robin schedule questions
How long does an 8-team round robin take?
7 hours with one-hour games if 4 fields let a whole round play at once. On two fields it stretches to 14 hours, and one field needs 28 hours.
When do teams 1 and 2 play each other?
In round 7, the last one. Team 1 meets 8, 7, 6, 5, 4, 3 and 2 in that order, so if you number the 8 teams by strength, the two favourites meet when the standings are almost settled.
Round robin or bracket for 8 teams?
A round robin takes 28 games and gives every team 7. A single elimination bracket is done in 7, with every first-round loser out after one game; double elimination takes 14 or 15 and guarantees each team 2.
