Welcome to the Home of the RC Army

The Rockin' Cocks started as a three man pump team at a local Charlottesville paintball tournament in 2006. Since then the Rockin' Cocks have expanded to a full roster and network of teams across the world. The RC Army represents that family of pump players made up of the Rockin' Cocks, The RC Revolution (Northern VA), RC Red Star (Australia) and RC Sweden.

We play all kinds of paintball but what we love is playing tournaments with pumps. We don't care what the other team is shooting as long as we've got our pumps...we are having a good time.

Check out or rosters, videos, pics and propaganda. If you like what you see...or even if you don't...leave a comment and let us know what you think.

Summer Paintball Coming to a Close



Partly sunny skies, 75 degrees and paintballs in the air...what an excellent way to spend a Sunday. Lefty, Hot Karl and I met up with Bacon, French-E, and Munch for a day of rec-ball at Pev's. We started with some time on the turf where we played the 6 of us against semi's for a little while. Sometimes we picked up one other walk-on to make it 7 v 7. Most of the time we were on the winning side of the field...it was awesome.

We headed over to the town field and rock field to do some damage before we wrapped the day up with a little more turf. The champions of the day were Bacon and Lefty. Bacon for almost pulling out a great 2 on 1. He caught one guy making a sloppy bump to bring it to a 1 on 1 where he showed some solid, patient play but it didn't turn out in his favor. Still a solid showing though. Lefty was a rockstar during our second turf session. He was playing back center on a 7 v 7 game. We lost our snake and snake corner and I eventually got blindsided taking out our whole snake side. I thought all was lost but as I walked past Lefty headed to the deadbox he was calling two K's. Seconds later another K, then another. They were dropping like flies at the mighty pump hand of Lefty Blanks. It came down to a 2 on 2. Lefty told Zak to cross it up and they were able to clean up and win the game.

Everyone played well...the communication was top notch and we had the right mix of conservative and aggressive play. I got a chance to try out my new Exalt Baller pants and after a few more days of play I'll be putting up a full review.

RC Rev Makes a Spiritual Journey to Connecticut

The weekend started out kind of late, leaving the burg at around 230-3 ish. Once we got rolling the trip up there was pretty fun, about as much fun as you can have on a 7 hour car ride. Friday was the typical tournament/hotel night, foam swords, silly string, the usual. Saturday was when the real fun started happening, arriving at the field around 8:30am we were greeted with the friendliest group of ballers we have met in a while, the people at Yankee Paintball are class acts, and treated us like we were regulars there.

After walking the field and running a couple drills on the layout, we went to play woods ball on their awesome fields, the fields reminded me a lot of Hogback in Leesburg. The big difference was the types of games they had, a lot of them were attack and defend the castle, extraction, and timed bomb game.

The field layout for the Gravity tournament was really interesting, with snake being able to lock down dorito side completely, and dorito side being able to shut down snake side completely, once you got to your bunker, there wasn’t a lot of room for movement until someone dropped a body. Playing home all day was actually a lot of fun, Home had shots on D1 and S1, so we had a pretty solid breakout sending one to home, one to D1, and one to S1.

After the fun was over on Saturday, we headed back to the hotel to relax at the pool and hot tub, it was perfect after a long day of playing. Saturday night was also a good bit of fun, and having to turn down an invitation to a bachelorette party for paintball the next day was an extremely tough decision, man I must love paintball. Sunday was awesome as well, we got the field around 8:00 and we’re greeted by a lot of friendly faces from MCB.

After our first few games, we had one most of them with all bodies up. The 40 ball limit was pretty difficult to get used to, but we did really well the first half of the day. We had one controversial game against one of the teams (cant remember exactly who) where we were up 2 bodies to 1, JJ ran to hang the flag, and got shot when he hung the flag. The refs counted it as a dirty hang and the other team was awarded the hang points, pushing us down to third before lunch. After lunch we lost our first game, but than came back with a win. In our last game, it was us against Blizzard, they had a solid break out, and shot Bacon of the break heading to D1. After Bacon got shot out I stayed home and tried to lock down D side. There was some confusion on the field between JJ and I, and while we were crossing it up Carter came through with the flag and bunkered both JJ and myself. Giving blizzard a win with all bodies up. Leaving us in third place, with one round left, which happened to be our by round. In the by round we were dropped down to fourth and still heading to the finals, where we were planning on taking 2nd or 1st.

During the break for finals, we heard that the field wasn’t going to be holding finals, because the field closed at 4:00, and the preliminaries ended at 3:40. This really got me heated, because when you have teams driving from 2 hours away, and 7 hours away, you can afford to keep your field open for another hour and a half. After realizing that we had a good amount of teams on our side that wanted to continue to play and play to the end (especially Pumper Nutter, these guys were the most fun team to play and the classiest) After I heard from numerous teams and field staff that they weren’t having finals, I proceeded to talk to Eric (Tugboater on MCB) the field owner, he said he couldn’t keep his field open and that some teams had voiced their opinion and did not want to keep playing.

In all it was an extremely fun weekend and we met some amazing people such as Splatttt, Eric, Kaos, the rubber duckies, and the whole Pumper Nutter crew (this isn’t the whole list, but the whole list would probably take up most of the page haha) It was a very successful weekend that I feel really brought us together more as a team, and introduced us to some awesome people, oh and the paintball was great too :P.

Pictures soon to come.
