"Best School you will ever attend. If you ever get a chance, go....also go to the asa fastpitch camp

The Fastpitch camp is in CA this year so us Midwestern or Eastern umpires need a strong desire to attend (and a fat wallet).

My experience did not match Bigdawgs. I attended the NUS held in South Bend IN this weekend. Maybe my expectations were too high; I assumed that because this was a "National" school, with "National" staff that it was going to be cutting edge; high level. In fact, it was closer to a Rookies Camp. I was bored and frustrated with the level of training and I left at the end of day one. A waste of my time, not to mention three hundred bucks for school and travel expenses.

Obviously my experience does not speak to everyone that should attend a NUS; in the same way that Bigdawg's experience should not speak to everyone that may not gain much from the camp.
