    Hi,
    To pursue Ph.D, you must start contacting the Ph.D research heads of the universities/departments and share your research interests with them. You have to be accepted by the research head before you submit your application. Universities in the US would require you to take the GRE. Additional eligibility will depend on the country and the university. Your scores are less so finding a suitable research university will be very competitive. I will also advise you to refer to this article for careers in psychology for more information.

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.
