Meet Peter Paltsios
Club Manager, Head Tennis Professional, Head Pickleball Professional
Email: Peter Paltsios
Philosophy: “Swing big, win big!”
To say Peter resonates the Longfellow culture of excellence is putting it mildly. As a young player Peter was coached by our founder, Laury Hammel. From being coached to becoming one of our most valued coaches, today he can be found extending his experience as he also manages our Nashua Club.
In his free time he enjoys hiking, bird watching, and spending time with his family. Some of his fondest memories are of coaching his own daughter, who won both New England Sectionals & Level 2 National Tournament.
Peter brings to Longfellow his extensive experience and accreditations in both tennis and pickleball.
