Question 251860: Six men are to play FIVE ROUNDS OF GOLF The men will be split into two teams of three. The teams will then play against each other over the five rounds. Is there any combination of players, making up the teams, that will allow each golfer to play with with all the other golfers as near as possible on an equal number of times. I have tried and can get near but always seem to end up with one playing with one of the group once and others three times!!
