Pugsley is part of the Sting Black G11 team that will be tested against GSA, Penn Fusion SA and FC Prime at this weekend’s event. She’s primarily a right back, but can play anywhere across the backline and perform at a high level. Pugsley consistently pushes forward and does a good job of being an option out wide, stretching the field and getting to the end line to deliver accurate crosses into the box. She also fires powerful and precise shots from distance and stands out defensively with her discipline and intelligence.

The Sting defender executes a simple game with confidence. Consistently, she shows her pass accuracy by distributing clean and quick passes to teammates while running to support the attack. Naturally, her IQ shines when she demands the ball, positioning her body toward the space and knowing what to do with it before it connects at her feet.

Her anticipation to read the play adds another layer to how effective she can be.She continues to influence every phase of play, proving how valuable she is to the Sting back line.

A right back, Pugsley sealed Sting’s victory with a long shot in the final minutes of the match, but she was important for her team during the entire match. With Sting dominating possession, she did a good job of constantly pushing forward to stretch the field and giving her team a passing option on the right side. Pugsley sent some very good crosses into the box, whipping the ball in with the right power and precision, and also came inside on some occasions to combine with the attacking players. She also did well when she had to play defense, helping shut down most of Albion’s offensive attempts.
