| Women's Competitive Teams | ||
| Middlesex will sponsor four woman’s teams during the 2008 season. The A, B & C teams are for those women who wish to participate in a competitive team environment. | ||
| Spring Camp | ||
| These camps are a good way to help everyone have a smooth transition to outdoor tennis. Every member is encouraged to participate regardless of ability and experience. We will focus on the latest doubles tactics, court positioning, team work, stroke development, and mental/fitness stamina. Each session will be two hours long, in which an hour and a half will be intense drilling and a half hour of match play. These camps are also a good way to try out for ladies teams. | ||

| Women's Team Competition | ||
| This program is ten-week long starting May 16 and ending July 25. It is designed for players who want to be part of a team that competes in the Fairfield County League. Each team will have a weekly practice for 1½ hour plus a ½ hour pre match warm up. The pros will be available at the end of each home match to provide match analysis. This year, Middlesex Tennis Committee has decided to have three teams competing in the Fairfield County League, instead of four teams as it was done in the past. Therefore, there will be some merging among all three teams. If you are not sure at this point where you might fit in best, or where you think you could contribute the most in representing Middlesex, please seek Faycal’s professional advice. [For players familiar with USTA rankings, A team is approximately 4.0, B team is approximately 3.5, and C team is approximately 3.0. | ||
