01What it is
Random teams, no favorites
A team generator splits a list of people into random groups. Use it for a pickup soccer game, group work in class, a team-building activity or a game tournament.
On Cuki the split comes from a public seed and the same engine as our draws. Teams stay balanced (sizes differ by one person at most) and, with the seed and the list, anyone can repeat the calculation and get exactly the same teams.

Number of teams or people per team. Before you start, you see how many teams you'll get and their size.
Make the teams
The list is shuffled with a public seed and dealt one by one, so the teams stay balanced.
Share them
Copy the teams to paste them in the group chat and, if anyone doubts it, verify the result on the server.

05FAQ
Common questions
Anything else? Write to hola@cuki-sorteos.com.
Is it free?
Yes. The team generator is free and needs no sign-up.
Are the teams balanced?
Yes. People are dealt one per team, so team sizes are equal or differ by one person at most.
What if I choose people per team and it doesn't divide evenly?
You get as many teams as needed so none goes over that number, and they stay balanced. For example, 10 people with 4 per team: 3 teams of 3 or 4 people. You see how they'll turn out before you start.
How do I know it was random?
Each split comes from a public seed generated on the spot. With the seed and the list, the verify button repeats the calculation on the server and confirms you get the same teams.
Can I balance teams by skill?
The generator splits at random, without looking at skill. To balance, split two lists separately with the same number of teams: one with the strongest players and one with everyone else. Then pair the teams in reverse order: team 1 of one list with the last team of the other, team 2 with the second to last, and so on. That way team sizes stay balanced.
How many names can I add?
Up to 500 names at a time, in as many teams as you want.
Does it work on my phone?
Yes. It works in any browser, on phone or computer.
