Random team generator
Split a list of names into random teams. Fair groups for class, sports, and games — in your browser.
12 names
Paste a roster, pick how many teams you want, and press Generate.
How to use the team generator
Paste a roster, pick how many teams you want, and get shuffled groups instantly. Useful for class projects, pickup sports, workshops, and board-game nights.
Paste names
One name per line. Empty lines are ignored.
Choose team count
Set the number of teams. Names are shuffled with cryptographic randomness, then dealt round-robin so team sizes differ by at most one.
Copy the result
Copy all teams at once, or copy a single team. Nothing is saved on a server.
About this tool
Random teams beat “pick your friends” when you want mixed skill levels or want quieter students not left last. Shuffle is the whole product: fast, visible, and repeatable until the room is happy.
Frequently asked questions
- Are leftover people dumped on one team?
- No. Extra names are spread across teams so sizes stay even.
- Can I generate teams of a fixed size instead?
- Set team count to roster ÷ size. Example: 24 names and teams of 4 → 6 teams.
