World Champion Sarah Hammer Announces Title Sponsor for
World Champion cyclist,
Sarah Hammer, announced today that OUCH Sports Medical
Center of Temecula, Calif. will become the title sponsor for
the American Women's Track Cycling Fund. Today's
announcement bolstered the recently founded AWTCF and its
unprecedented women's international track cycling team with
kudos from one of the most sought-out sports medicine
specialists in pro cycling.
"Dr. Brent Kay of the OUCH Medical Clinic was my greatest
financial supporter last year and he has now confirmed an
equally high level of faith in my new organization and
team," said Hammer. "OUCH's support has just guaranteed a
strong foundation for our pioneering women's track cycling
team. They are 100 percent behind the AWTCF and its goals to
develop young women into racers and to bring home an Olympic
gold medal from the 2008 Beijing Games."
Highlighting Hammer's comments, Dr. Kay, OUCH Sports Medical
Center Executive Director added, "We are pleased to announce
the sponsorship of the American Women's Track Cycling Fund
and World Champion Sarah Hammer. This innovative team design
is the ideal way for Sarah to train and race in preparation
for the Olympics in 2008. Furthermore, the developmental
aspect of the AWTCF seems to be the greatest way to insure
future female gold medal Olympians. OUCH has been the
primary medical provider for Sarah, along with Tour de
France contender Floyd Landis, and we want to show support
for women's cycling by providing the AWTCF with an initial
contract of two years."
Hammer reiterated OUCH's history of working with and
supporting Temecula's other star cyclist, Floyd Landis, Tour
de France leader for Team Phonak:
"OUCH and Dr. Kay have taken care of Floyd and me for some
time now. They represent an organization that athletes can
truly count on. With this sponsorship, we could equally say
that women who race on the track in the U.S. can count on
OUCH for the same support that's provided to racers in the
Tour de France! OUCH's sponsorship of the AWTCF is a major
statement that they care about and want to see women
accomplishing their dreams in sports."
