How Team Maker Works

From your player list to perfectly balanced teams in just 4 simple steps. No hassle, no arguments.

1

Add Your Players

Start by adding your players to Team Maker. Whether you have a small group or a large squad, the app makes it easy to build and manage your roster with multiple input options.

  • Manual Entry: Add each player individually with their name, preferred position, and skill rating. Perfect for quickly setting up a new group or adding last-minute arrivals on match day.
  • CSV Import: Import an existing player list directly from a CSV file. This is ideal for larger squads or when migrating from another system, saving you hours of manual data entry.
  • Rate Skill Levels: Assign each player a skill rating so the algorithm can create truly fair and competitive teams. Ratings can be updated over time as players improve or form changes.
  • Set Positions: Define preferred positions such as striker, midfielder, defender, or goalkeeper. The algorithm uses this information to ensure every team has proper coverage across the pitch.
