How this round robin works

With 18 teams, a single round robin produces 153 matches across 17 rounds. Every team faces every other team exactly once.

Each of the 18 teams plays 17 games. The schedule uses the circle method, so the rounds are balanced and no pairing repeats.

Frequently asked questions

How many matches in a 18-team round robin?

A 18-team single round robin has 153 matches in total — each of the 18 teams plays the other 17 once. The formula is n×(n−1)/2.

How many rounds for 18 teams?

18 teams need 17 rounds. With an even number of teams every team plays each round; with an odd number, one team has a bye each round.

How many games does each team play?

Each team plays 17 games — one against every other team. For a double round robin (home and away), double it.

How is the schedule generated?

It uses the circle method: team 1 stays fixed and the others rotate one spot each round. This guarantees every pairing happens exactly once with balanced rounds.

Can I add scores and a live standings table?

Yes. Create the tournament on LiveCup and the league table, points, goal difference and tiebreakers update live as you enter results.

Can I run a double round robin?

Not as a live tournament yet: live scores and standings on LiveCup cover a single round robin. For a home-and-away season, turn on "Double Round Robin" in the round robin schedule generator. It builds the full fixture list for 18 teams, twice as many matches.
