Need to divide a group fairly? Spin the Team Generator Wheel to randomly assign people to teams instantly! It works right in your browser. Learn how to customize your wheel.
The Team Generator Wheel (or Sorting Hat) is the fairest way to divide a classroom, sports roster, or group of friends into teams. You load the wheel with your team names (e.g., Red Team, Blue Team), and have each person spin it to discover their fate, completely eliminating the painful "playground picking" process.
Get started in under 30 seconds — here's how.
Enter your team names as the wheel entries.
If you want exactly 5 people per team, you can't use this specific wheel (use a list randomizer). This wheel is for pure chance!
Have the group line up.
Each person clicks spin to see where they go.
Ensure fairness and avoid cliques.
Randomize the squads so the best players aren't always on the same team.
Use it as a digital Sorting Hat to put party guests into Hogwarts houses.
Teachers use this to break up friend groups and force students to work with new people.

Yes, you can add Red, Blue, Green, Yellow, and Purple teams all on the same wheel.
Currently, the wheel supports text and emojis, so try using 🔴, 🔵, 🟢 emojis to represent the teams!
Allowing two "captains" to pick teams one-by-one is a recipe for hurt feelings, as someone always has to be picked last. Using a Random Team Spinner makes the process entirely objective and fast. Nobody is picking favorites, and the blame for a bad team composition falls solely on the algorithm.
