Devin Pugh

Director of Community Outreach

From an early age, Devin knew he loved soccer and wanted to make his impact through the game. He was born and raised in Baltimore, Maryland, where he is still a resident to this day. While not playing the sport on any major competitive level, his earliest memories of the sport involve watching the 1998 World Cup but he did not fall in love with the game until he was introduced to Thierry Henry and Arsenal FC in the early 2000s. Devin attended Hampton University, graduating with his Bachelor’s in Marketing in 2011, but his passion for the sport led him to pursue his Master’s in Sports Analytics and Management from American University, graduating in 2022.

Devin has worked all over the DMV sports industry. He got his first job in sports working for the Baltimore sports Radio station, 105.7 The Fan where he was an Account Services Manager for two years doing work with the Ravens, Orioles, and Maryland Terrapins. He then transitioned to a role directly with the Baltimore Orioles as the Assistant of Corporate Partnerships for the 2017 season. He got his first role in soccer working as part of D.C. United’s Street Team for the 2020 season. Although the pandemic ended the season early, Devin was determined to continue to make his mark on the community through soccer. He got the once in a lifetime opportunity to join the committee bidding with FIFA for Baltimore/DC to host games as part of the 2026 World Cup handling all Marketing and Event Activations. In 2022, Devin became the Inside Sales Manager & Events Coordinator for the Washington Spirit where he coordinated 100+ events for the 2022 season. After making a positive impact in the community and with fans, he was promoted to the Supporter Relations Manager with the Spirit for the 2023 season serving as the liaison between four Supporters Groups for the Spirit. Devin also has experience working in the government and IT industries.

Devin is passionate about building community and growing the game. He is very excited to be working with a team that does so much in their local community and is very eager to meet the Annapolis Blues fanbase! Be sure to say hello if you see him!
