Sammy? HELP!) for Guts... and the court sizes aren't hugely different (?) So run two teams against each other - firstly as DDC pairs (ie 3 or 4 courts at the same time) then as a combined team for Guts... The scheduling is the easy part - what you have to ensure is that the Guts court is in easy reach of the all-day bar, and that you have ample staff to ferry the beer across that short distance... You've just assumed that the players in a DDC team are going to play for the same guts team. If pople start playing for different teams in the guts and DDC there will be scheduling carnage. As far as I am aware guts is 5 + subs, and DDC is 2 per team - so if you enforce that 1 guts team then fields 3 DDC teams then scheduling, tournament organisation, and beer consumption will be easy!
