How you can use this Online Group Maker

Icebreakers and team building

Many ice-breaking activities are done in teams, which means a group creator can be helpful in forming teams where members work with colleagues whom they don’t usually interact with.

Brainstorming and sharing

Group discussion creates a lively and comfortable atmosphere for learning. Learners get a sense of freedom and autonomy towards their learning, thereby promoting their positivity, initiative, and creativity.

Fun and light-hearted events

Random teams help partygoers mingle and also add a touch of suspense and surprise when the names are drawn.

Frequently Asked Questions

How can you randomise the team in a traditional way?

Choose a number, as that number should be the number of teams you wish to form. Then tell people to start counting repeatedly, until you've run out of people. For example, 20 people want to be split into five groups, and each person should count from 1 to 5, then repeat again and again (a total of 4 times) until everyone is assigned to a team!

What happens if my teams are uneven?

You’ll have uneven teams! If the number of players is not perfectly divisible by the number of teams, it’s impossible to have even teams.

Who can randomise teams in large groups of people?

Anyone, as you can simply put people's names into this generator, then it would self-generate to the team, with the number of teams you chose!

Is it really random?

Yep, 100%. If you try it a few times, you’ll get different results every time. Sounds pretty random to me.
