Jonathan Tuggle was born and raised in Marietta, Georgia. As an involved member of the hockey community, he takes great pride in pursuing this next venture of his hockey endeavors.

He moved to Eden Prairie, Minnesota to pursue his hockey career at age 14. He joined the EP eagles for 3 years and with a future in college hockey in sight, Jon was abruptly detoured by several knee injuries and would move back to Georgia.

In 2022 Jon founded the Red River Spartans organization in the USPHL. Jon has spent the last ten years growing his impressive hockey network and has built a strong reputation within the hockey community across North America. Outside of hockey, Jon is the active owner of CLS Medical, a commercial linen and laundry service for healthcare providers in Georgia.
