Why Chaim Schalk ranks #204 in Volleyball

Chaim Schalk ranks 204th among Volleyball athletes on GOAT Rank and 3263rd of 4013 across every sport in the index. The published GOAT Score of 80.0 is the weighted result of five verified category scores: Dominance 74, Peak 84, Longevity 84, Honours 78, Statistics 82. Those categories are normalised against the full Volleyball reference universe of 308 records, not a shortlist, so the position reflects the whole sport rather than a handful of famous names.

The record covers 2010–present with 17 documented competitive seasons. The strongest single season in that series is 2016, which sets the Peak component at 84. Peak is the defining strength of the profile at 84 out of 100, and it carries 20% of the final score. The underlying career record includes pan american gold medals 1, avp titles 3, world tour medals 4, olympic appearances 2.

Immediately ahead sits Byon Kyung-ja on 80.1, a gap of 0.1 points. Directly behind is Sérgio Santos on 79.9. The position moves whenever the verified record moves: new titles, new seasons or a corrected source all feed straight back into the same formula, and every change is dated on this profile.
