Random Team Generator

Split a list of names into random, evenly-sized teams or groups.

Dividing people into teams always risks accusations of stacking — picking friends, balancing by reputation, or just whoever's standing nearby. Random assignment sidesteps all of that: paste the names, choose how many teams, and let chance produce groups nobody can argue with.

This generator shuffles your list fairly and distributes everyone into evenly-sized teams, spreading any remainder one member at a time so group sizes never differ by more than one. It's built for classrooms, sports, workshops, game nights and project groups.

Frequently asked questions

Common mistakes to avoid

  • Leaving blank lines, which are ignored but can make the count confusing — clean the list first.
  • Re-generating repeatedly to engineer a specific grouping, which defeats the point of randomness.
