No specific intention or ablution (wudu') is required when going for sports, although it is always recommended to perform wudu'. A good intention transforms permissible acts into acts of worship. Thus, whoever intends by sport to strengthen their body for obedience to Allah and to refresh their soul for worship with energy, and no forbidden act results from it, will be rewarded for it.
