    Set team options

    Choose either the number of teams or the number of people per team to configure how the split should work.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I shuffle the teams and try again?
Yes. Click "Shuffle" to regenerate completely random teams from the same list of names without re-entering participants.
What if the number of participants does not divide evenly?
Remaining participants are distributed as evenly as possible. Some teams may have one extra member, which the tool clearly indicates.
Can I pin certain people to specific teams?
Yes. The pin feature lets you lock individuals to a team before randomising the remaining participants around them.
