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.

A determined Bangor Grammar defensive display against Ballyclare High saw the home team pick up the points with a 12 – 7 win in an intense match at the Grammar School grounds on Saturday morning.

Despite Ballyclare having the bulk of territory and possession it was Bangor that took a 12 – 0 lead into the break thanks to a brace of tries from  and a conversion.

The High School upped the possession stats even move in the second half as they pounded the Grammar’s line but a truly impressive effort from Bangor restricted the visitors to a solitary try from with converting.

A tense final ten minutes followed the Ballyclare score but the Bangot team dug deep and held on for a deserved win in a match which was a credit to the efforts of both sides.
