SPEEDWAY 1 ARENA-ESSEX have announced that Jon Cook has joined the club as co-promoter with Australian star Adam Shields coming with him on a three-year deal. Both have made the move from Eastbourne with Shields and Joonas Kylmakorpi acquired by the Hammers on full contracts. Cook said: ''I wanted a new challenge after being at Eastbourne for fourteen years. There are exciting times ahead for the Hammers.'' SPEEDWAY 2 EASTBOURNE have completed their team for 2007 with the signings of former Eagles Davey Watt and Stefan Andersson. And with co-promoter Jon Cook moving to Arena-Essex, owner Bob Brimson has appointed Trevor Geer as manager. Brimson said: ''I am delighted to have a more solid team than the previous two seasons. The club is being reorganised along quite different lines to how it ran before.'' SPEEDWAY 3 POOLE have signed experienced Russian star Sergey Darkin to leave their team building for the new season virtually complete. The fast-gating Darkin has had previous Elite League spells with Eastbourne, Coventry and Arena-Essex. Pirates chief Matt Ford said: ''I am more than happy to bring Sergey to the club and I believe the Poole fans will warm to him very quickly indeed.''
