What is a league with 12 teams?

In a league (round robin), each of the 12 teams plays every other team exactly once – so every team plays 11 fixtures. This results in 11 matchdays with 66 matches in total, with 6 matches running in parallel per matchday if enough pitches are available. Unlike a knockout, nobody is eliminated: every team plays the full season, which makes the league the fairest format when all participants should get as many matches as possible. The standings are sorted automatically by points (3 for a win, 1 for a draw), goal difference and head-to-head. With an odd number of teams one team has a bye each matchday – Turniermeister schedules these byes automatically.

What is a league with 12 teams good for?

A league with 12 teams pays off when every team should get as many fair matches as possible over the season and a single bad day should not decide elimination. It suits club leagues, company and hobby rounds as well as a group phase before a playoff or knockout stage. Placement is decided by points (3/1/0), then by goal difference and the head-to-head result on ties.
