How do I record timeouts, and how many does each team get?

Question

Accepted Answer

Allowance per team Regulation: three 60-second and two 30-second timeouts Each overtime: one extra 60-second timeout Unused timeouts carry over, including into overtime Recording Record each charged timeout: which team and when (quarter and time on the clock). Keep a running count so you can tell a coach or official how many each team has left. Notify the nearer official when a team has been granted all its allotted timeouts, or an excess timeout (an excess timeout is a technical foul). Not charged as a timeout An official grants a player's request because of displaced eyeglasses or lenses. A correctable error, or a timing, scoring or alternating-possession mistake, is prevented or fixed.
