In the 2003–04 season, Hammond was loaned out to lower league teams, starting with Aldershot Town during September.[15] After making seven appearances at Aldershot Town, he returned to his parent club despite intending to extend his loan spell at the club.[16][17] Following this, Hammond was loaned out to Leyton Orient shortly after.[18] After extending his loan spell for another month with Leyton Orient,[19] and went on to make nine appearances for the side. At the end of the 2003–04 season, Hammond was offered a new contract.[20]

In the 2006–07 season, Hammond was handed the captain's armband at the club after injuries to both Richard Carpenter and Charlie Oatway.[42][43] He started the 2006–07 season well when he scored his first goal of the season, in a 2–2 draw against Brentford on 12 August 2006.[44] His second goal then came on 12 September 2006, in a 2–2 draw against AFC Bournemouth.[45] By the end of 2006, Hammond went on to score four more goals against Bradford City,[46] Cheltenham Town (twice)[47] and Oldham Athletic.[48] After being sidelined with injury and suspension,[49][50] Hammond became the new official club captain after Carpenter was released by Brighton at the end of January 2007.[51] Weeks after being appointed as a new captain, Hammond scored two goals in two matches between 13 February 2007 and 17 February 2007 against Leyton Orient[52] and Nottingham Forest.[53] However, he suffered a hamstring injury that ruled him out for the rest of the season.[54] Hammond also scored three times in cup competitions, with two came from Football League Trophy against Boston United[55] and MK Dons,[56] while the other one came from FA Cup against Stafford Rangers.[57] Hammond finished the 2006–07 season making 39 appearances and scoring 11 times, making him the top–scorer both in the league and in all competitions.
