Hammers Star Injured at Eastbourne
18 June 2008
The Lakeside Hammers Finnish international, Joonas Kylmakorpi, was involved in an horrendous crash during last night’s Sky Sports Elite League match away at Eastbourne. He dislocated a shoulder and will be sidelined from the Sport for around 14 days. The accident occurred during heat 14 of the match down at Eastbourne’s Arlington stadium and shocked not only those present but also the large audience watching the meeting live on Sky Sports. Kylmakorpi tangled with Eastbourne’s Australian rider Cameron Woodward down the back straight with Woodward clipping the fence. Both rides took heavy falls but the Australian was able to walk back to the pits unaided. However, the Hammers rider was not as fortunate as he had to take an ambulance ride off the track. It was diagnosed that Kylmakorpi had dislocated his shoulder and required a trip to the local hospital. The shoulder was put back in place and x-rays revealed no broken bones.

Hammers Delight Over Win At Wolverhampton
23 April 2008
The Lakeside Hammers riders, management and supporters were all delighted with Monday evening’s superb victory in their Sky Sports Elite League match up at Wolverhampton. Despite falling behind in the early stages the whole team raised their games and eventually came out easy winners. The home side led by six points after just four heats and although the Hammers gained 4-2 heat wins in the sixth and seventh races the Hammers did not take the lead until heat 10, when Joonas Kylmakorpi and Adam Shields claimed a maximum 5-1 heat advantage over the Wolves No1 Fredrik Lindgren and Ales Dryml. That put the Hammers two points up but that soon doubled to four points when Andreas Jonsson defeated the in-form David Howe with the young Hammers reserve Ricky Kling picking up the point for third place.
