How to split people into random teams
- Paste the names, one per line or comma separated.
- Choose the number of teams or people per team. Tick balance by skill if your names end with a number.
- Shuffle again for new teams, then copy the text or print the cards.
Questions
How are the teams chosen?
The names are shuffled with Fisher–Yates, using random numbers from crypto.getRandomValues, the browser’s cryptographic random source. Every split is equally likely, and no name is favoured.
How big is each team?
Teams differ by at most one person. Thirteen names in three teams make teams of 5, 4 and 4. If you choose people per team instead, the number of teams follows from the list.
What does balance by skill do?
Put a number after each name, like “Sam, 3” or “Sam 3”. The names are sorted from highest to lowest and dealt in a snake, so the totals stay close. Each team’s total is shown under its list.
Are the names saved?
No. The names stay in the box on this page and are not uploaded. Only the settings, such as the number of teams, are remembered on this device.
