7 team round robin: rotation and duration

7 is an odd number, so one team rests in each round while the other 6 play 3 matches. The rotation takes 7 rounds, and every team rests once.

With 3 courts and 30 minutes per match, the 7 rounds take about 3 h 30. On a single court, all 21 matches take about 10 h 30.

A double round robin doubles it to 42 matches. Tick the home and away box above to see it.
