32 team/ 162 games season

[scblcommish]

I need a 32 team, 162 game schedule for the following league setup:

2 Sub leagues,
4 divisions each
Divisions are 4/4/4/4 and 4/4/4/4
162 Games
All-Star Game in early July
No Interleague Play
Teams will play each team outside of their division on one 3 game home series and one 3 game away series with balance of games against their own division rivals.

Preferably the Divisional series games would bookend either side of the games against the rest of the subleague teams

Thanks In advance
Steve

By this do you mean you want all the interdivision games in one continuous chunk in the middle of the season with all division games split before and after that chunk? That would mean roughly 45 division games, then the 72 interdivision games, then roughly 45 division games.

Normally I would put the interdivision in 2-4 series chunks. It sounds like you want all 24 interdivision series together, but I want to confirm or correct that impression.

would this work

3 games home and away against own division 18 games
3 games home and away against 1st inter division 24 Games
3 games home and away against own division 18 games
3 games home and away against 2nd inter division 24 games
3 games home and away against own division 18 games
3 games home and away against 3rd inter division 24 games
3 games home and away against own division 18 games
3 games home and away against own division 18 games

Thanks for looking at this

It is not really convenient to make everything 3-game series, but something really close to that should work out fine. Like 17D/24ID/20D/24ID/23D/24ID/30D.

Oh yeah, and I am assuming each block of interdivision should be all the games against one division.

This structure actually looks more impressive that my silly one
