The correct answer is
12 players in a team, 9 on the field.

Kho-Kho Team Size and Players on Field

Kho-Kho is a popular tag sport originating from India. Understanding the number of players involved is key to understanding the game.

Kho-Kho Team Composition

A standard Kho-Kho team consists of 12 players. This is the total number of players registered to a team.

Players Active During Play

During an active game of Kho-Kho, only 9 players from each team are permitted on the field at any given time. These 9 players form the chasing and defending units during their respective turns.

The remaining players in the team (12 total - 9 on field = 3 players) are substitutes who can be brought into the game if needed, according to the rules.

Therefore, the correct structure for a Kho-Kho team is 12 players in the squad, with 9 players actively participating on the field during a match.
