Advice needed!

Hi guys, Im writing a game in php and have so far implemented code to enable a user to:

-- Select 5 players from a table of players and add the player id to a new table in the db
    along with the session variables - $gameid and $gamename

Now the user has selected their team, they need a team to play against.

so.....

I was wondering if there was a way, at the same time as the above, to insert 5 other players at random.
And insert the player id's and the session variables???

Im sure this is possible so if anyone has any ideas that would be great!!!

cheers
