What is the formula for round robin tournament?
To determine the number of games for a single round robin tournament, as seen above, use the following formula, N x (N-1)/2. With a tournament of 6 teams, the calculation would be: 6 x (6-1)/2 = 6 x 5/2 = 30/2 = 15 games. To keep track of winners I use the following record chart in class.
How do you win a round robin tournament?

H/A rotation: each team should play a home game and an away game every other round, i.e. in a tournament with 5 rounds, a given team should have the following rotation: H-A-H-A-H. Let’s say you have a round-robin system where every team takes part in one match each round and every team has a perfectly alternating home-away-schedule.
How is the scheduling of a round robin tournament determined?
Round Robin scheduling: Even number of teams. Let N = number of teams in the tournament. There will be N -1 rounds (each team will play N-1 games). Since each team will play every other team once, no team will be idle during any of the rounds.
How are home and away round robins worked out?
Let’s say you have a round-robin system where every team takes part in one match each round and every team has a perfectly alternating home-away-schedule. Let A and B be teams that both play at home in the first round. Then they’ll be playing at home every odd round and playing away every even round.
