// 02 Why these schedules

Partner-fresh to the mathematical limit.

With N women and N men, N rounds is the absolute maximum before a woman-man team has to repeat — and every schedule here holds the no-repeat guarantee all the way to that ceiling, then spreads the unavoidable repeats as evenly as the math allows. Every pair is colour-coded so you can see the quality up front.

When real life hits — an uneven gender split, a no-show, a couple wanting to stay paired all night — the live mixer's Gender Mixed presets take the same rotation logic and adapt it every round.

// 03 FAQ

Mixed doubles round-robin questions.

7 questions
Q.01 What is a mixed doubles round robin?
A mixed doubles round robin is a rotation schedule where every team is one woman and one man, and partners change every round so each woman plays with as many different men as possible (and vice versa). These pages offer free printable schedules for 8 to 24 players with an equal gender split, plus a live mixer whose Gender Mixed preset handles any headcount — equal split or not.
Q.02 How many rounds can a mixed doubles round robin go without repeating partners?
With N women and N men, exactly N rounds — each woman can partner each man once. With 8 women and 8 men that is 8 completely fresh rounds; with 6 and 6 it is 6. Every schedule here holds the no-repeat guarantee to that mathematical ceiling, then spreads the unavoidable repeats as evenly as possible for the rest of the 18 rounds.
Q.03 What if we have different numbers of men and women?
A printed equal-split schedule will not fit an uneven group. The live mixer handles it: the Gender Mixed Balance preset keeps as many courts mixed as the ratio allows and fills the rest fairly, adjusting every round as people come and go.
Q.04 How do sit-outs work in a mixed doubles rotation?
Sit-outs come in woman-man pairs so the on-court gender balance is preserved. Each schedule variation with sit-outs benches one or two pairs per round, rotating in order, so bench time evens out and the sheet marks the fair stopping rounds.
Q.05 Can I get the schedule as a free printable PDF or in Excel?
Yes — every player count has both. The PDF prints as a one-page handout with a write-in name key; the Excel file has a Players tab where you type each name once and every round updates automatically. Free, no signup.
Q.06 Can I print the schedule with my players' real names?
Yes. On any player-count page, type your players' names into the name panel and click "PDF with names" — the women's and men's slots are labeled separately (W1, W2… and M1, M2…), so it is easy to keep the genders straight.
Q.07 What is the difference between these sheets and the live mixer?
The printable schedules are fixed rotations for an equal gender split where everyone stays the whole session. The live mixer re-solves the rotation every round — late arrivals, drop-outs, uneven splits, skill balancing — and its Gender Mixed Only preset keeps every court mixed for 4 to 150 players.
