Not sure I understand the question....

   Take 10 rooms....put all team A members in those 10 rooms (2 persons to a room)

   Take the other 10 rooms and put all of the Team B members in those rooms.

How many ways can 10 rooms be chosen from 20 rooms

 

20C10 = 184756

Team A can have these or they can have the other set. So that is 2 ways.

 

Now how many ways can I pair off 20 people?

Person 1 can go with anyone, 19 to chose from

Now there are 18 people left

Person 3 can go with anyone 17 to chose from

so there will be 16 left

and so on.

So that seem to be   19*17*15*13*11*9*7*5*3*1 = = 654729075

I really do not know if that is correct.

 

So I have

184756*2*654729075*654729075 158398768771746207705000 = 1.5839876877174621 * 10^23

Mmm that is a lot!

 

That is my best guess. (For the moment)
