Split into Teams
Split your group into fair, even teams in seconds. Pick 2–4 teams, set how many players, then everyone draws a card to find their team — a free random team generator for charades, Crocodile and party games.
How many teams?
Split into teams or groups — no lists, no arguments
Splitting a room into teams by hand is slow and never feels fair — someone always ends up picked last. Here nobody types a single name: choose how many teams you need, pass the phone around, and each player draws a card that shows their team. The deck is balanced before the first draw, so the teams come out even every time.
Teams or groups, it is the same tool — it works just as well for splitting a class into study groups or a workshop into breakout groups as it does for charades, Crocodile and the hat game.

The cards are shuffled in advance so teams come out balanced — the sizes never differ by more than one player. Tap start over to reshuffle.
Frequently asked questions
How does this random team generator work?
Set the number of teams and players, and the tool builds a shuffled deck of cards. Each player draws one card to reveal their team. Because the deck is balanced before anyone draws, the teams always come out even.
Is it really random and fair?
Yes. Cards are shuffled with an unbiased Fisher–Yates shuffle, so every player has an equal chance of landing on any team, while team sizes stay balanced.
Can I use it to split a class or group into teams?
Absolutely. It works for any group — classrooms, parties, sports warm-ups or office events. Pick up to four teams and let everyone draw a card.
Which games is it good for?
Any team game: charades, Crocodile, Pictionary, trivia, relay races and more. It pairs perfectly with Chapeau Shuffle for a full party-game night.
How do you split into teams quickly?
Pick how many teams you need, set the number of players, and hand the phone around — each player draws a card and sees their team. There are no names to type and no lists to write, so the whole group is split in well under a minute.
Can I split into random groups instead of teams?
Yes — teams and groups are the same thing here. Choose 2–4 groups and the deck balances itself, so every group ends up the same size give or take one player. It suits classrooms, workshops and team-building as well as party games.
