As of today, we are at about 30 Students, so it is not full. The cap is about 75-80 Students until we have to bring in a 4th Instructor. All the info about the NUS can be found on the cactusumpires.com Web Site as well as the additional info that is posted about the Metro Phoenix hosted NUS. There is an electronic registration form there also. Already got a couple of apps from some Tucson boys. For your convenience I have below the additional info about the school that is posted on the web site and I have attached a map of ASU. 2003 ASA National Umpire School, Phoenix, AZ 1-2 Feb Supplemental Information On Friday January 31 from 6 PM to 8 PM there will be Advance NUS Check-In (Pick-Up of School Materials) and a "Get Acquainted Reception" at Host Hotel - Twin Palms Hotel, 225 E.
