Random Team Generator
Split a list of names into random teams of even size for classes, games and work groups.
About the Random Team Generator
Paste a list of names and choose how many teams. The calculator shuffles the names and deals them out so teams differ in size by at most one.
The list is shuffled with a cryptographically secure random generator and then dealt out like cards, so teams are random and their sizes differ by at most one person. For skill-balanced teams, list players from strongest to weakest and deal in a snake order instead.
The formula
Shuffle, then person i goes to team (i mod k)
Worked example
Ten players into two teams
- Names shuffled at random
- Two teams of five
