Project description
This project focuses on the question how to organize and schedule a vast number of sports leagues simultaneously, which is highly relevant in various youth and amateur sports competitions. We study how this can be done in a sustainable way (e.g. by reducing travel distance), while respecting the capacity of the available sports infrastructure, and several fairness criteria.
