About This Tool

The Team Generator takes a list of names and randomly divides them into balanced teams or groups. It is ideal for teachers organizing classroom activities, coaches forming practice squads, event organizers creating breakout groups, or friends splitting into teams for a game.

Enter your names, choose whether to divide by a specific number of teams or by a target team size, and let the tool handle the rest. The algorithm uses a cryptographically secure shuffle to ensure every grouping is completely random and fair. When the total does not divide evenly, extra members are distributed across groups as evenly as possible.

Regenerate new groupings with a single click while keeping your name list intact. Copy the results in a clean, formatted layout ready to paste into emails, documents, or messaging apps. The tool handles lists of any size and creates clear, labeled team assignments that are easy to read and share.
