The fastest way to split a group fairly
Coaches, teachers, and event hosts use our random team generator when they need balanced teams without arguments. Paste every player name, pick how many squads you need, and let secure randomness do the rest.
Unlike picking teams by hand, every shuffle is transparent. Hit Generate teams again for a new split, or share the breakdown so remote players and subs see the same groups.
Built for real world group splits
PE teachers divide classes for dodgeball. Hackathon hosts create balanced build teams. Streamers split viewers for game night. Workshop facilitators break attendees into breakout groups.
The generator handles uneven numbers gracefully. If 11 players need 3 teams, you get 4 + 4 + 3, and which teams get the extra players is chosen at random every time.
Frequently asked questions
How does the random team generator work?
Paste every player name on its own line, choose the number of teams, and click Generate. We shuffle the list with secure randomness, then split players across teams. Any extra players land on randomly chosen teams.
How many teams can I create?
Anywhere from 2 up to 20 teams, or fewer if you have fewer players. Each team gets at least one player when possible.
Is this fair when player counts do not divide evenly?
Yes. Teams stay as even as possible. If 11 players need 3 teams, two squads get 4 and one gets 3, and we pick at random which teams receive the extra players.
Can I share the team list?
Yes. Click Share teams to send the full breakdown by WhatsApp, Instagram, copy link, or your phone share sheet.
Can I save my team split?
Yes. Tap Save below your generated teams to store the split in Saved on this device. Open Saved anytime to view it again.
