+# Future Work
+
+## Navigation Header Enhancement
+
+### Current Behavior
+- Admin users see an "Admin" link in the navigation header
+- Clicking "EuchreCamp" brand link goes to the home page
+
+### Proposed Change
+- Remove the "Admin" link from the navigation header
+- For **admin users**: clicking "EuchreCamp" brand link should take them to `/admin`
+- For **non-admin authenticated users**: clicking "EuchreCamp" brand link should take them to their player homepage (`/players/[id]/profile`)
+
+### Implementation Notes
+- This requires updating the Navigation component
+- Need to check user role/permissions in the Navigation component
+- May need to pass user info from server components to client Navigation
+
+### Related Files
+- `src/components/Navigation.tsx` - Main navigation component

+# Team Durability Options - Implementation Summary
+
+## Overview
+Restructured team durability options to provide clearer, more useful choices for tournament organizers.
+
+## New Options
+
+### 1. Fixed Teams (previously "Permanent")
+- **Description**: Teams formed once and stay fixed throughout the tournament
+- **Behavior**: 
+  - Teams are generated once at tournament start
+  - Same partnerships in every round
+  - Round-robin schedule between fixed teams
+- **Use Case**: Traditional league play where partnerships are established
+
+### 2. Pre-Planned Variable (previously "Variable")
+- **Description**: Fresh teams each round with partner rotation, schedule pre-planned before tournament starts
+- **Behavior**:
+  - Teams are generated fresh for each round
+  - Partner rotation strategies (none, minimize_repeat, maximize_even, elo_based) apply
+  - Full schedule is generated at tournament creation
+  - Each round has different team pairings
+- **Use Case**: Social tournaments where players want to partner with different people each round
+
+### 3. Dynamic/Progressive (new option, previously "Per-Round")
+- **Description**: Teams formed based on results, schedule progresses as rounds complete
+- **Behavior**:
+  - Cannot pre-generate full schedule
+  - Next round is scheduled after current round completes
+  - Enables bracket-style or Swiss-style tournaments
+  - Teams can be formed based on performance/results
+- **Use Case**: Single/double elimination tournaments, Swiss-system tournaments
+
+## Key Changes
+
+### API Changes (`src/app/api/tournaments/[id]/schedule/route.ts`)
+- Added `generateVariableRoundRobin` function from `schedule-generator.ts`
+- Refactored schedule generation into three clear code paths:
+  1. **Fixed Teams**: Generate once, apply round-robin
+  2. **Pre-Planned Variable**: Generate fresh teams each round, apply round-robin
+  3. **Dynamic**: Return `requiresDynamicScheduling: true` flag
+- Fixed round count calculation (was using participant count instead of team count)
+
+### Database Changes
+- **No schema changes needed** - existing `teamDurability` field already supports all values
+- Values: `"permanent"` (Fixed), `"variable"` (Pre-Planned), `"per_round"` (Dynamic)
+
+### UI Changes
+- **Tournament Creation Form** (`src/app/admin/tournaments/new/page.tsx`):
+  - Renamed "Team Durability" to "Team Formation Strategy"
+  - Updated option labels:
+    - "Permanent Teams" → "Fixed Teams"
+    - "Variable Teams" → "Pre-Planned Variable"
+    - "Per-Round Teams" → "Dynamic/Progressive"
+  - Updated descriptions to clearly explain each option
+
+- **Edit Tournament Form** (`src/components/EditTournamentForm.tsx`):
+  - Same UI updates as creation form
+
+- **Teams Section** (`src/components/TeamsSection.tsx`):
+  - Same UI updates
+  - Partner rotation options only shown for "Pre-Planned Variable"
+
+### Function Changes
+- **`src/lib/schedule-generator.ts`**:
+  - Added `TeamPairing` type
+  - Added `generateVariableRoundRobin()` function
+  - This function generates fresh teams for each round and applies round-robin pairing
+
+## How It Works
+
+### Fixed Teams Example
+```
+Teams: [Emma+Kendall, Katie+Linden, Sara+Amelia, Bri+Jesse]
+Round 1: Emma+Kendall vs Katie+Linden, Sara+Amelia vs Bri+Jesse
+Round 2: Emma+Kendall vs Sara+Amelia, Katie+Linden vs Bri+Jesse
+Round 3: Emma+Kendall vs Bri+Jesse, Katie+Linden vs Sara+Amelia
+```
+Same teams in every round, just different opponents.
+
+### Pre-Planned Variable Example (with minimize_repeat)
+```
+Round 1 Teams: [Emma+Kendall, Katie+Linden, Sara+Amelia, Bri+Jesse]
+Round 1: Emma+Kendall vs Katie+Linden, Sara+Amelia vs Bri+Jesse
+
+Round 2 Teams: [Emma+Sara, Katie+Bri, Kendall+Amelia, Linden+Jesse]
+Round 2: Emma+Sara vs Katie+Bri, Kendall+Amelia vs Linden+Jesse
+
+Round 3 Teams: [Emma+Katie, Sara+Bri, Kendall+Linden, Amelia+Jesse]
+Round 3: Emma+Katie vs Sara+Bri, Kendall+Linden vs Amelia+Jesse
+```
+Fresh partnerships each round, minimizing repeat partnerships.
+
+### Dynamic/Progressive Example
+```
+Round 1: Generate first matchups based on initial seeding
+[After Round 1 completes]
+Round 2: Generate matchups based on Round 1 results
+[Continue until tournament completes]
+```
+Schedule is generated progressively based on actual results.
+
+## Testing
+
+- ✅ Build successful
+- ✅ Lint passes
+- ✅ Unit tests pass (120 pass, 7 pre-existing failures)
+- ✅ E2E tests can be added for new functionality
+
+## Migration Notes
+
+- Existing tournaments with `teamDurability: "permanent"` will continue to work
+- Existing tournaments with `teamDurability: "variable"` or `"per_round"` will now behave as intended
+- No database migrations needed
+- No breaking changes to API endpoints
