How it works

Each non-empty line becomes one row under number, player, and position headings, with the number column aligned right. Pipe characters are backslash-escaped so supplied text stays inside its intended table cell.

  • The heading defaults to Team only when no team name is supplied.
  • No sport-specific jersey range, position list, uniqueness rule, or lineup order is imposed.

Worked example

Format team roster
Input
											Team name: Falcons
Players: 7, Alex Morgan, Forward
1, Sam Lee, Goalkeeper
Output
												# Falcons

| # | Player | Position |
|---:|---|---|
| 7 | Alex Morgan | Forward |
| 1 | Sam Lee | Goalkeeper |

When to use this

Club READMEs publish squads, tournament notes format registration rows, and coaching repositories share numbers and positions.

Edge cases

  • A name containing a comma, such as Alex Smith, Jr., cannot be represented faithfully by the three-field comma format.
  • A pipe in a name is escaped instead of opening an unintended fourth cell.
  • Duplicate jersey numbers stay as separate rows because uniqueness rules differ among competitions.
