How It Works
The key challenge with 24 teams on 2 fields is game density. With 276 total games, each field averages 138 games. The solver distributes games evenly, assigns start times, and checks for conflicts in one pass.
Step-by-Step Guide
Calculate game density first
With 24 teams and 2 fields, you have 276 total games. Each field handles roughly 138 games — that density target drives your time window requirements.
Define field availability
Enter each field's available days and hours. If fields have different schedules or blackout dates, configure them individually. The solver treats each as a separate resource.
Run the constraint solver
The AI distributes all 276 games across your 2 fields, assigning start times and ensuring no field is double-booked. If your time windows are too tight, it tells you exactly what to adjust.
