We are currently carrying out a necessary behind-the-scenes upgrade to how images are stored and delivered on The Front Row Union Sports. With over 770,000 images on the site, we are moving our entire image library to a dedicated cloud storage service. This means images will load faster for you, regardless of where you are in the world, and the site will be more reliable overall.

As we are working on three separate versions of images during the offload process, the site cache sometimes struggles to keep up with which version to display and occasionally post grid images or complete galleries may fail to appear. This is a temporary side effect of the migration process — the image exists and is safe, it is simply in the process of being moved to its new home and identified as being there. A refresh of the page will usually bring them back, however, if it does not please contact john@thefrontrowunion.com stating clearly the post address and we will restore it as soon as possible. We apologise for any inconvenience this causes and appreciate your patience.

We expect the bulk of the image migration to be completed by the end of June 2026, with a fully upgraded version of the site ready to launch in August 2026. Once that work is done, the site will be noticeably faster, images will load more reliably, and you will not see any further disruption of this kind. Thank you for your continued support of The Front Row Union Sports.

Methodist College’s run of good form continued with a 14 – 10 win against, Belfast neighbours, Campbell College on Saturday morning.

The result will see Methody put pressure on Wallace High for second place in the Ulster Schools Rugby Rankings.

All the points were scored in a first half flurry with Methody’s and crossing for a try each, both converted by Ethan McIlroy.

The home sides 14 point lead didn’t last long as Campbell responded strongly with a penalty from and a try by , also converted by Rankin, to take the score to 14 – 10 at the break.

Somewhat disappointingly there was no further scoring in the second half with neither side able to break down their opponents defence.
