If you are interested in orthopedic surgery you should do an ortho residency after med school and follow that with a sports med fellowship. If you are interested in Primary Care, you should do a primary care residency (FP, ER, Peds, IM, etc) after med school and follow that with a primary care sports medicine fellowship. Join the sports med club at your school. Rotate with clinicians that do a lot of sports medicine in their practices. Attend sports medicine conferences and read the sports medicine literature. These are all things that will be helpful to you.
