Rocky

Bio

Rocky is the youngest cockerel in the Backyard Farm. He fell in love with the beautiful game as a chick, after watching Sammy and Benny playing most afternoon on the farm. Though only 1 foot 2 inches (35cm) tall and only weighing 5 pounds (2.27 kg), he is strong, well-balanced and agile, utilising his weightlessness in flight, to accelerate, turn and attack the ball. Naturally left-clawed, quick, and precise in control when in possession, Rocky has sharp passing accuracy and can readily thread his way through packed defences.

His ability to read the game shines through when commentating on the afternoon’s match. His favourite, most prestigious spot to observe the play, is the infamous ‘Top Beam’. The whole Backyard listens to his insightful, witty comments, happy to share in his passion and celebrate his success.

Although he is often faced with adversity, and those around him may attempt to put doubt in his mind, nothing will stop Rocky realising his dream. One day he will be a world-famous footballer and play at Wembley. He knows that he believes in himself so nothing is impossible!
