Hi @THECAPTAINEGHAM , you wrote your question without much desire to find an answer, without examples of how your data is, without examples of how you want the result, but what if in the following ones you find the answer.

Sorry. I can clarify further, I hit the enter button so did not finish my message. This is for lawn bowls.
I need to select 24 from 26 and rest 2 of 26 and there are 4 matches
the 24 at each match are split over teams of 4 and we select a different team of 24 for each match with nobody playing with the same people more than once

In a regular module paste :

VBA Code:
Sub refresh()
    Worksheets("Team Generator").Calculate
End Sub

Attach the above to a button on Sheet1.
Sheet one should look like below image.

Range G2:J7 each have a different formula that create the team members. The formula for one of the cells is :

Code:
=IFERROR(IF(G$1<>"",INDEX(Table1[Names],INDEX(Table1[Rank],G$1+$E$2*(ROWS($F$2:F2)-1))),""),"")

You can download the example workbook here : Internxt Drive – Private & Secure Cloud Storage

Best wishes ...
