Real-life Golf Problem- Andy works for the WIAA, the organization that puts on the high school state tournaments. Below is a problem they encountered at work one week.

Context: The golf teams at the high schools in Whatcom and Skagit counties have a scheduling problem. We are trying to create a schedule that allows each school to compete against all of the other schools an equal number of times or at least fairly equal, plus or minus one match.

Scenario: Fourteen schools play a match every week for six weeks. Every week seven schools play at one course, while the other seven compete at another course.

Questions: Can a schedule be designed so that each school competes against all 13 other schools an equal number of times? Is there more than one solution? How can the schedule be created?
