In women’s college basketball, teams are allowed four timeouts per game. Here’s a breakdown of how they work:
1. Four total timeouts per team for the entire game.
2. Three 30-second timeouts and one 60-second timeout.
3. In the second half, each team is allowed to call a 30-second timeout, but if they haven’t used their 60-second timeout by that point, they can opt to call it instead of a 30-second timeout.
4. No carryover: Unused timeouts do not carry over to overtime.
Additionally, each team gets one extra timeout in overtime.
These rules can slightly vary depending on specific conference regulations, but the general framework is consistent across NCAA women’s basketball.
