Frequently Asked Questions
How does skill-based team balancing work?
Our skill-based balancing uses a greedy algorithm with lookahead to distribute team members with different skill levels (1-5 rating) as evenly as possible across teams. This ensures fair, competitive matchups for sports, games, or group work.
Can I save my team rosters?
Yes! You can save rosters to your browser's local storage, load them later, export them as JSON files, and import rosters from files. Your data stays private on your device.
How many teams can I create?
You can create anywhere from 2 to 50 teams. The generator uses a snake draft algorithm to ensure balanced team sizes when dividing people into groups.
Is this team generator free?
Yes, the random team generator is completely free to use with no account required. All features including skill balancing, roster saving, and CSV export are available at no cost.
What is a snake draft?
A snake draft is a method where teams pick in order (1, 2, 3...) then the order reverses (...3, 2, 1) in the next round. This helps ensure balanced teams by giving later-picking teams first choice in alternating rounds.
Can I use this for classroom groups?
Absolutely! This tool is perfect for teachers creating study groups, project teams, or activity groups. You can save class rosters and quickly generate new random groups whenever needed.
