Your teams

Commas work too (Ada, Ben, Cleo). Team count cannot exceed roster size—we cap it for you. Ctrl/⌘+Enter runs the split.

0 people in roster - paste one per line or comma-separated.

Quick

Roster and teams stay in this tab—we do not receive your list.

Example layout:

Team 1: Alex, Jordan — Team 2: Sam, Taylor

Teams appear here after you run the tool. Copy results and Save results as use the same plain-text layout.

  • Shuffle and split run in this tab—no roster upload for the tool
  • Team count auto-caps so you do not get empty teams
  • Each click is a fresh random split

What this is for

Turn a pasted roster into random, fairly sized teams—sports, class work, icebreakers. Set team count, run once, copy or export.

  • Lines or commas both work
  • When headcount does not divide evenly, team sizes differ by at most one
  • Click again anytime for a new shuffle

Tip: Remove blank lines so they are not counted as players.

When to use this

When you need random groups fast and do not want to send names to another site.

How it works

  1. Paste one name or item per line (or use commas).
  2. Set number of teams—capped at roster size.
  3. Click Split into random teams: Fisher-Yates shuffle, then round-robin deal.
  4. Copy results or export; edit the roster and run again anytime.

Privacy: Your roster and team output stay in this tab for the split. We do not receive what you paste. Optional third-party scripts may still load per site settings.

FAQ

  • Why did my team count change? You cannot have more teams than people—we clamp to roster size and show the real count in the result.
  • Are team sizes equal? When numbers do not divide evenly, sizes differ by at most one—we show min/max under Balance.
  • Official drafts? Casual browser helper—not a certified draft system.
