Pools composition

Teams were seeded in the first two positions of each pool following the serpentine system according to their FIVB World Ranking as of 22 September 2014.[2] AVC reserved the right to seed the hosts as head of pool A regardless of the World Ranking. All teams not seeded were drawn in Tehran, Iran on 22 April 2015.[3] But, Saudi Arabia later withdrew and Oman moved from pool A to C to balance the number of teams in each pool. Rankings are shown in brackets except the hosts who ranked 10th.

gollark: My arguably-evil scheme is running perfectly, by the way.
gollark: It seems like they just had the wrong idea.
gollark: "Bug" would imply that they had some idea in mind but got it wrong when translating it to code.
gollark: Maybe you could have an "emergency bailout" thing by manually asking moderators or something.
gollark: That would probably help.
