How the 5-team schedule is built
Each of the 5 teams plays the other 4 once, which makes 10 games. Because 5 is odd, one team sits out each round, so there are 5 rounds of 2 games and every team rests exactly once.
With 2 courts a round is played all at once; at 30 minutes a game the whole schedule takes about 2 h 30 min. On one court it takes about 5 hours.
Playing everyone twice
Switch on “Play everyone twice” for a double round robin of 20 games. The second half repeats the first with the sides swapped.
If that is too many games
A 5-team single elimination bracket takes 4 games and a double elimination bracket 8.
