Random team picker

Paste your list of names, choose how many teams or how many people per team, and get fair random teams in one click. The first name in each team is the captain.

Your teams will appear here.

How the team picker works

Your names are shuffled with the Fisher–Yates method, using your browser's secure random number generator, then dealt out one by one like cards. That way team sizes never differ by more than one person, and every possible split is equally likely.

Need to pick one person instead? Use the random name picker.

Frequently asked questions

Are the teams balanced?
Team sizes differ by at most one person. The picker does not know anyone's skill level, so for skill-balanced teams, list your strongest players first and pick captains with the wheel.
Is my list saved?
