In most team sports, there are rules around how many fouls a team can commit before being disqualified or penalized. The specific number of fouls allowed can vary based on the sport and the league or organization that governs it.

In basketball, for example, a team can commit a maximum of six team fouls per half before being penalized with free throws by the opposing team on all subsequent fouls. After a team commits 10 fouls in a half, the opposing team will be awarded two free throws on every foul.

In soccer, the number of fouls that a team can commit before receiving a yellow card or red card varies based on the level of play and the specific rules of the league. In general, though, a team can receive a maximum of six yellow cards before a player is suspended for a game, and a red card will result in immediate disqualification.

In American football, the number of team fouls allowed is not specifically limited, but rather the penalties assessed against the team increase in severity as more fouls are committed.
