Fair teams for 12 players
Twelve people, two fair sides of six. Paste the list, say roughly how good everyone is, and the generator picks the teams. Free, no sign-up.
Six a side, or five with a sub
Twelve can be a 6-a-side game, or 5-a-side with a sub on each side if your pitch is small. The split is the same either way: two sides of six with totals as close as they can be.
Subs count too
If you're playing 5s with a sub each, put your usual subs in at their real level. A sub who's on for half the game still changes it, and the generator balances all six on each side.
Two keepers, or none
Tick GK for anyone staying in goal and they go on opposite sides. If you rotate, leave it unticked.
Fair every week
The generator is only as fair as the levels you pick. In Squadcard, everyone rates everyone else after each game, so the ratings come from the people who were there and the teams get fairer on their own. Plus player cards that move with your form, a player of the match and a Team of the Week.
Questions
How do I split 12 players into two teams?
Paste the twelve names, set how good each one is, tick any keepers, and tap Pick fair teams: two sides of six, balanced on level.
Can I play 5-a-side with 12?
Yes: pick two teams of six and play 5-a-side with one rolling sub each side.
What if one drops out?
Remove the name and pick again. With eleven, one side has five and gets the slightly stronger players.
How do I stop guessing how good everyone is?
Squadcard does it for you: after each game everyone rates everyone else out of 10, and the app picks the teams from those ratings. Only totals are ever shown.
