Life

Kugler lived in northern Czechoslovakia until 1938 . From 1937 to 1938 he played with the Teplitzer FK in the highest Czechoslovak soccer league. On April 3, 1938 he made his debut - like his Teplitz club colleague Heiner Schaffer - in the 0: 4 in Basel against Switzerland in the Czechoslovak national team.

At the beginning of the 1938/39 season he moved with his club mate Heinrich Schaffer to Dresdner SC in the Gauliga Sachsen , which at that time was one of the 18 highest football classes in Germany. In his first year in Dresden, Kugler won the Saxon football championship with his team. In the subsequent final round of the German championship, Kugler was used in all nine matches and scored four goals. The DSC reached the small final for third place and won 3-2 over Hamburger SV. Kugler scored the winning goal.

In the 1939/40 season, the Dresdner SC became German runner-up for the first time and won the final of the Tschammer Cup (2-1 over 1. FC Nürnberg). However, Kugler was not involved in either the championship finals or the cup final. It wasn't until a year later that he won his first title in the 2-1 final win for the Tschammer Cup over FC Schalke 04. In the 18th minute, he scored the first goal of Dresden as a right winger.

In 1943 Kugler finally won the German championship . In the final round he was used from the quarterfinals. He was successful with four goals in every game, in the 3-0 final win over FV Saarbrücken, he got the final score again as a right winger. In 1944, the Dresdner SC won the German championship again, but Kugler was not part of the final round this time either.

After the end of the Second World War, Kugler left Dresden and played for the Bavarian amateur league club Sportvereinigung Coburg until 1948 .
