How it works
- Type or paste one name per line in the player box.
- Choose 2 to 10 teams and add skill levels if you want even sides.
- Turn on Pick a captain if needed, then tap Make teams. Tap it again for a fresh split.
Every pick starts from your browser's cryptographic random number generator, so each option has the same chance unless you set a weight. How the randomness works.
Ways to use it
Gym class kickball
A PE teacher with 28 kids skips the awkward schoolyard pick and has two even squads on the field before the whistle.
Trivia night tables
The host splits 18 regulars into four tables so the same friends stop teaming up every week.
Office scavenger hunt
HR mixes departments into five crews so accounting and the warehouse finally talk to each other.
Pickup basketball
Rate each player 1 to 3 so the two tallest guys don't end up on the same side again.
Group projects
A teacher builds lab groups of four, then lets the tool name a captain who collects the worksheets.
Questions people ask
How does the skill balancing work?
Give each player a level, and the tool spreads the strong and newer players across teams before shuffling the rest. Teams end up close in total skill while the exact lineups stay random.
What happens if the names don't divide evenly?
Some teams get one extra person. With 11 players and 3 teams, you get two teams of 4 and one of 3.
Can it pick a team captain?
Yes. Turn on Pick a captain before making teams. The tool chooses one person on each team at random.
Do the team names and colors mean anything?
They are random labels so groups are easy to call out across a gym or classroom. Reroll them if a team wants a different color.
