Our software - your approach
Season scheduling for Sports Leagues
Excellent planning system for professional sports leagues scheduling
Creating good schedules is very challenging. Thanks to our own mathematical modeling system LPL we are able to rapidly edit any plan and consider even most complex requirments and to find the best possible plan for the benefit of the league, the teams and all other stakeholders. We elaborate schedules with complex constraints most effectively. Our state-of-the-art Tournament software is the leading tool in this respect.
Made for all Sports
Flexible, robust and fully customizable to your leagues needs
Our Tournament system is highly sophisticated and can be integrated in a full administration programme or it can be used as stand-alone solution.

What we do
We have more than 10 years experience in the professional sport league scheduling. Over the last 8 years, Virtual Optima Ltd. and its subsidiary Virtual Optima Sports (VOS) have developed a highly sophisticated Tournament software that allows the Leagues to establish even the most complex season fixtures very quick and independently.
What we do
about Virtual Optima
Virtual Optima Sports is a subsidiary of Virtual Optima Ltd., a spin-off company of the University Fribourg, based on over 15 years practical orientated research work in the field of mathematical optimizations (OR). As a result of the applied research, Virtual Optima has developed the modling system/modeling language LPL. LPL is a high-level computer-executable system, which allows to describe, build, modfy and document complex scheduling problems in much shorter time. In fact, LPL is one of only a few comparable products of this type worldwide. This quality makes it ideal for complex scheduling problems. We have started with a number of national sport leagues to develop the sport scheduling system TOURNAMENT, which is now a state-of-the-art and a leading scheduling system for professional sport leagues worldwide.
Difficulties
It is useful to show an example: How many season schedules are theoretically possible to generate, if we assume that: A certain league consists of 10 teams and each team plays (only!) 2 times against each other (meaning that there are 2 round-robins and, in total, 18 rounds) and no other restrictions (so-called constraints) to be considered whatsoever? The answer is mind-blowing: Over 10 to the power of 101 plans are possible. Or in other words, more as it can be counted in a livetime.
Our approach:
We use our own mathematical modeling system LPL for re-write and calculate complex season plans. LPL was developed over the last 20 years of diligent and profound university research. There are only a handful similar modeling system worldwide.
This means that smaller changes, but also even bigger amendements, f.e. change of the play modus, can be done extremely quickly and with greater efficiency and flexibility.
