How many substitutions and timeouts are allowed in snow volleyball?

Quick Answer

Snow volleyball allows up to 2 substitutions and 1 timeout per set, fewer than indoor FIVB rules (6 substitutions, 2 timeouts per set).

Full Explanation

Per FIVB Snow Volleyball rules, each team is allowed 1 timeout per set and up to 2 substitutions per set, both lower than indoor FIVB volleyball's 6 substitutions and 2 timeouts per set. Re-entry rules also differ: a substitute may return in a different court position than the player they replaced, and the player who substitutes back in does not have to be swapped by the same player, so there is no fixed substitution pairing as there is indoors.
