    Dear Yojitha,
    It's typical. I think you shouldn't change your field after doing engineering. You did 4 years of engineering and hence, you should make career in the same field. Morover, if still you want to do such course, you should do BA for that.

Hi...

it is quiet difficult to get admission for M.Sc sports psychology for students from non-sports background but not impossible so a personal sports background can provide useful insight, it is not a mandatory prerequisite for admission. The focus is more on your foundational knowledge of psychology and relevant practical or academic experience that prepares you for the rigorous demands of a master's program in this specialized field.
