Entry #: 4220847
| The complete schedule has been entered and verified through my double checking process, that no errors are made during entry. . ALL teams will play 20 games (10 weeks) . As stated earlier, the only way to get more than 16 games a team, was to go through the teams again, and the only way that happens is to give a 2nd BYE for everyone. Typically with an odd number of teams, each team would get 1 BYE, and the whole league was off the closest July 4th weekend, This time, the league plays the "July 4th" off week, because July 4th falls on a Tuesday allowing me to fit this schedule in. So in actuality, teams normally would have 2 weeks without playing during the season. This season is no different i that regard. . Most Sundays, only 1 team is on BYE. To make this schedule work with teams getting 2 BYE weeks, there are 3 Sundays where 3 total teams are on BYEs. . . ** IMPORTANT ** . I did make one mistake when numbering the weeks needed to fit the schedule in, and that was not skipping Memorial Day weekend's date. What this means is that we, as a league, are off without any scheduled games, but I now had to use my built-in make up weekend for the normal schedule, thus NO RAIN OUT WEEK IS OPEN at season's end, before playoffs. . If any teams are scheduled to play on August 13th, and would like to schedule that game for Memorial Day Weekend (totally up to you teams) or if you are both on a BYE a given week, or if a team wants to play 4, that could open that Aug. 13th date for you in case a make up is needed to be scheduled later in the season. . Obviously, not my ideal way of making the schedule, but when I built in 1 week of make ups, we get a ton of rain and we needed 2 make up weeks. When I scheduled 2 make up weeks at season's end, we got a dry spell and teams didn't need them. . Later in the season, when Little League is finished playing tournaments, that also allows us to use Frick on a SATURDAY for make up games (as long as I double check with the city that it's open) . Thanks for being patient with my getting this schedule done, this is the first time I had to give each team 2 BYEs and so I didn't have a previous format to use in helping my complete this. . LAK
