Due to a conflict between the Peruvian Volleyball Federation and the FIVB, this is the only edition where the red-and-whites have not participated in the South American tournament. So far, the powerful Peruvian women's national volleyball team has won at least a medal in every edition they have participated.
The competition system for the 2001 Women's South American Championship consisted of three rounds, with Brazil, Argentina and Venezuela automatically playing the second round, the other four teams played a single Round-Robin system.

The second round saw another Round-Robin pool, points were again accumulated during the second round and the top two team advanced to play for the gold while the bottom two teams played for bronze.
