0 partner repeats and 0 opponent repeats across 8 rounds. Highlighted rows are even stops — everyone has played the same number of games.

How the math works

Players per round

2 courts × 4 players = 8 on court each round, so 24 sit out. Sit-outs rotate so nobody sits twice before everyone has sat once.

Even stops

Everyone has played the same number of games every 4 rounds (1 games each). Stopping on an even stop keeps the standings fair.

Time estimate

Rally scoring to 11 takes about 12 minutes plus 2 minutes to rotate. 4 rounds ≈ 56 min; 8 rounds ≈ 1h 52m. Side-out scoring adds about 30%.
