Hi everyone:

I have looked through the message boards for solutions to my problem and I don't think I've found anything that quite fits. Here's my challenge...

I run a golf league with 32 teams, so I have 16 tee time slots. Because of time constraints, job responsibilities, etc., my teams fall into 3 general groups:
  • Those that can play in any of the tee time slots (1-16)
  • Those that can only play in slots 1-8
  • Those that can only play in slots 9-16
I am also trying to avoid teams playing each other in back-to-back weeks if possible, but repeats over the course of the season are OK, as are teams not playing each other at all (our season typically runs 16 weeks).

Any help or solutions to this issue are most welcome. If there is an existing solution on these boards that you're aware of, please point me in that direction as well. Thanks in advance.
 
Actually I was thinking the other sheets aren't necessary. If you think this work ok I will modify it so everything is on the same sheet and in one formula.

What did Pito Salas invent?
Pito Salas, working for Lotus, popularized what would become to be pivot tables. It was released as Lotus Improv in 1989.
Here is the unified (and corrected) formula:

Felix, this is totally awesome and right on the money. A couple of final questions:
  1. I assume it's possible to rename my weeks to dates and rename my slots to times if desired...correct?
  2. Is it possible to add a sheet to identify my teams by name along with the identifier they get in your schedule sheet?

Hi, thanks for the feedback.
Yes you can change the week number and the slots number to anything you like.
I added a table with team IDs and team Names and a "schedule" sheet.

Here is a cleaner version of the formula (i used lambda function instead of repeating 3 times the same code):
