How many substitutions and timeouts are allowed in beach volleyball?
Beach volleyball allows no substitutions at all, and 1 timeout of 30 seconds per team per set.
Full Explanation
Per FIVB Beach Volleyball rules there are no substitutions. Each roster is exactly two players and those two finish the match they started; if a player cannot continue, the team is declared incomplete and the set or match is awarded to the opponent. Each team gets 1 timeout per set, lasting 30 seconds, against 2 timeouts per set indoors. The interval between sets is 1 minute. VolleyRef.App hides the substitution controls outright on the Beach ruleset rather than letting you record a sub that does not exist.
