How to use Team Generator
Add one person per line, choose a team count or people per team, and generate groups. Shuffle again for a new arrangement.
- Clear the samples and paste every participant once.
- Choose Teams for a fixed number of groups, or People per team for a maximum target size.
- Select Generate teams and check that everyone appears once.
- Review any practical constraints, then copy the teams or generate another arrangement.
Give it a try
Organize a class project, workshop breakout, or friendly game.
Example: fourteen people at four stations
Set Teams to 4 for fourteen participants. The result has two teams of four and two teams of three. Each person belongs to exactly one team. In People per team mode, a target of 4 also calculates four teams, then balances them to 4, 4, 3, and 3. It does not fill three groups of four and leave an isolated pair. A different shuffle changes membership while preserving the balanced sizes.
What ‘balanced’ means here
The generator balances headcount, not skill, experience, relationships, or accessibility requirements. It uses a random shuffle followed by even distribution. If two people must stay together, this tool does not enforce that constraint automatically; review and adjust your plan outside the generator. Local saving preserves the participant list and wheel settings, not a permanent archive of every generated grouping. Copy the displayed teams before leaving the page.
Useful to know
Are the teams balanced?
Team sizes differ by no more than one person. This tool does not balance skill or experience.
Can I set team size?
Yes. Choose People per team to calculate the number of groups from your list.
