Hammond grabbed his first Leicester City goal in a 2–1 home defeat to QPR in September 2005.[10] He was also on target in the 3–2 victory over Tottenham Hotspur in the FA Cup third round tie later that season.[11]

On 4 June 2007, Hammond was placed on the transfer list by his then manager Martin Allen.[12] In May 2008, Hammond was one of six players released by the club after his contract was not renewed. Hammond joined Cheltenham Town on 11 November 2008 on a short-term contract until January 2009.[13] Hammond left Cheltenham Town by mutual consent in March 2010.[14] Hammond joined Sutton United later that year during October 2010, he scored on his debut against Margate.
