You couldn't sell me on that with your money. I have a hard time believing an umpire can get the necessary attention with that many people, even with a 25-1 ratio. Just a personal opinion.

All of the states (WA, OR, ID, MT, AK) have state schools - except this year WA combined theirs into this NUS.

And that is another problem(not WA specifically). I have yet to have an umpire return from a National school stating it was boring. There are far too many inexperienced umpires dumped into National schools. It's great that they fill the schools, but those who are there to get to the next step sometimes end up learning little to nothing more than what they already knew.

General comments, not directed toward Reg. 15

Congratulations on conducting a successful school, but you would die a slow and painful death at the bar

Then I double dog dare you to come out to our next NUS in Region 15 and experience it for yourself.

Not happening. I've been to the PNW once, and that was enough.

One reason ours are successful: when you come up here for a national school, you get personal neck rubs from Malcolm and Bill.
