How many time-outs are there in table tennis

One

In table tennis each player has one time-out in a match.Each time-out lasts no more than one minute and may be taken at any point in the game, but must be taken when the ball is not in play, usually at the end of each round.

The purpose of the timeout is primarily to help the athlete adjust, relieve stress, and communicate with the coach or off-court instructor to develop or adjust game tactics.During a game, athletes may experience fluctuations in form due to nervousness or physical exertion, and a timeout provides an opportunity to adjust breathing, relax muscles, and refocus.

In addition, if an athlete suffers an accidental injury during a match, with the permission of the referee, he/she may interrupt the match for emergency treatment, provided that the interruption does not exceed ten minutes.
