Competition category sorts athletes by the level they actually competed at, such as national team, club or youth level. Wikipedia notes Pele played "for the Brazil national team at 16" while also starring "at club level" for Santos, two distinct categories at once. This dimension groups athletes who competed at the same category of competition.

Frequently Asked Questions
Why is this Precision Sports category reserved for golfers alone?
Golf is expected to gain substantial future athlete depth on its own, so the category is reserved for golfers rather than broadened.
This subcategory groups athletes who competed in golf, the sport judged on precision striking over an extended course rather than direct athletic confrontation. It is reserved for golf on the same depth-justification the sport type tree gives it: a single discipline expected to gain substantial future athlete depth, not a thin category padded out for its own sake.
