Correct. There are the parameter at the top of the schedule files:
  • start_month="3"
  • start_day="28"
  • start_day_of_week="5"
That translates into, start on the first Thursday (for the game day of week 5 is Thursday - start with Sunday as 1 and count forward) on or after March (month 3) 28th (yup, day 28). All the files have that same parameter set, so they will all obey that rule.

So if you started with the "x11" in OOTP year 2019 that would start the season on Thu Mar28. The next schedule would be "x12". Mar28 in 2020 falls on a Saturday, so the game looks forward from that date to the following Thursday, which is Thu Apr2. For the next schedule "x13" in 2021, it will start on Thu Apr1.
