Why Sheilla Castro ranks #33 in Volleyball

Sheilla Castro ranks 33rd among Volleyball athletes on GOAT Rank and 913th of 1063 across every sport in the index. The published GOAT Score of 76.3 is the weighted result of five verified category scores: Dominance 72, Peak 80, Longevity 78, Honours 78, Statistics 74. Those categories are normalised against the full Volleyball reference universe of 310 records, not a shortlist, so the position reflects the whole sport rather than a handful of famous names.

The record covers 2001–2017 with 12 documented competitive seasons. The strongest single season in that series is 2008, which sets the Peak component at 80. Peak is the defining strength of the profile at 80 out of 100, and it carries 20% of the final score. The underlying career record includes olympic golds 2, grand prix titles 6, world cup medals 2, champions league titles 2.

Immediately ahead sits Osmany Juantorena on 75.7, a gap of -0.6 points. Directly behind is Bartosz Kurek on 76.7. 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.
