How random team generator works
This generator shuffles your list of names into a random order, then deals them out round-robin into the requested number of teams. Round-robin dealing keeps teams balanced: team sizes differ by at most one person, so no team is unfairly large or small.
Enter your names one per line (or comma-separated). Then choose either the number of teams (e.g. 4 teams) or the team size (e.g. 5 people per team). If you set the number of teams, names are dealt evenly across them; if you set the team size, the generator creates as many teams as needed.
For reproducible results, enter a seed number. The same seed always produces the same teams, which is handy for repeating a draw or sharing a result. All shuffling happens in your browser, so your names are never uploaded.
