Random team generator

Paste your names and get balanced random teams in one click. Shuffle again for a new split.

Add at least two names.

Your teams will show here.

How to use it

  1. Paste or type the names, one per line or separated by commas.
  2. Choose the number of teams, or how many people go in each team.
  3. Press Make teams, then Shuffle again if you want a different split, and copy the result.

Questions

Are the teams really random?

Yes. The list is shuffled with your device's secure random number generator and then dealt out like cards, so nobody is favoured by their place in the list.

What if the people do not divide evenly?

Team sizes differ by at most one person. For example, 10 people in 3 teams gives teams of 4, 3 and 3.

Can I keep two people on the same team or apart?

Not here. Shuffle again until you get a split you like, or move names by hand after copying the result.

Do my team lists leave this page?

No. The names stay on this page and are gone when you close it.
