SQL, Count and subqueries

Here is the situation:

I have one table that lists a number of courses available (including
CourseID, CourseName and MaxPositions), with CourseID being auto_increment
and unique

I have another table which has CourseRegistration (Containing CourseID and
CustomerID), with no unique fields. Customer information is stored
elswhere.

Without having a field in the Courses table holding the number of people
currently registered, how would I return a result set which included:

CourseID, CourseName, MaxPositions and the Number of people registered to
take that course.

Preferably this would not use features in MySQL 4.1, but anything is fair
game at this point.

Thank you for all of your help.
