What shall I do to become a sports journalist? I have done my B.Sc honors in chemistry.

Hi, First, learn to write, report and edit. Being able to tell a concise, interesting and informative story is the same whether it is a school board meeting or a baseball game. The world is filled with sports junkies who have dreams of being a sports journalist, but who are unwilling to learn the craft of being a journalist first. Once you have polished your journalism skills find your local community newspaper or radio station with samples of your work and offer to work for next to nothing. If you are lucky they will bring you aboard and you will get the scut work, but over time you will move up and earn respect. Moreover, pursue a mass communication degree to get the details about journalism.
