Free Football Schedule Maker

Building a football season schedule means coordinating pitch bookings, referee availability, and travel distances for every club. A round-robin format eliminates arguments about who plays whom — everyone faces everyone, and standings reflect true season-long performance rather than bracket luck.

Add your football teams (use real club names for a shareable, professional-looking fixture list), set the first match day, enter your home ground as the default venue, and generate. The schedule respects your chosen games-per-week cadence so no week is overloaded. Export to PDF once you're happy and distribute to team managers.

Pro tip: if your league uses home and away legs, generate the schedule once for the first half of the season, then manually swap home/away for the second half — or generate twice with team order reversed. Either method is standard in amateur football associations.

FAQ

How do I create a football fixture list for a local league?

Enter all team names (2–16), set the season start date and your default venue, then click "Generate Schedule." A complete round-robin fixture list is created instantly, which you can export to PDF.

Can I use this for 5-a-side or futsal leagues?

Yes. The schedule format is sport-agnostic. Simply enter your team names regardless of the format — 5-a-side, 7-a-side, 11-a-side, or futsal — and the round-robin rotation applies equally.

What happens if a team withdraws mid-season?

Click "Clear & restart," remove the withdrawn team, and regenerate. The new schedule will reflect the remaining teams from the original start date.

How many rounds does a football round-robin have?

With N teams: N−1 rounds (N even) or N rounds (N odd, with BYE). Each team plays once per round, except the team with the BYE which rests that week.
