Graph-theoretical models are given for constructing the season schedule of a sports league; we consider in particular the problem of having an alternation of home-games and away-games which is as regular as possible, and we characterize schedules with a minimum number of breaks in the alternations. Some related graph-theoretical properties are discussed and a solvable case with preassignments of home-games and away-games is presented.
