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
What separates this Water and Boat Sports athlete category from Aquatic Sports?
The dividing line is whether a craft carries the athlete, as with rowers and sailors, rather than the athlete's own body in the water.
This subcategory groups athletes who competed from a boat, shell or hull, meaning rowers and sailors. Athletes who compete with their own body in the water are grouped instead under Aquatic Sports, so the dividing line is whether a craft carries the athlete during competition.
