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.

City of Armagh U16 completed a league and cup double after beating Ballynahinch U16 in the RB Fleming Cup final at Ravenhill on Saturday.

I must admit the Orchard County side won this game with some style, scoring four tries without reply in their 29 – 0 win.

Armagh took control from the off and the impressive Sam Glasgow crossed after 3 minutes. Jack Fox added the conversion to put Armagh seven points clear.

The pressure from Armagh was relentless during the first half and less than ten minutes later they were seventeen points clear after Fox added a penalty followed by a conversion after RJ McCall crossed for their second try.

Armagh’s third try came from Zac Corkery just before half time. This one went unconverted leaving the score 22 – 0 in Armagh’s favour at the break.

Ballynahinch were much more competitive in the second half as the enjoyed more territory and possession.

However, despite their efforts they were unable to crack the Armagh defence. As the game wore on Armagh worked their way back up field for Glasgow to top and tail the games scoring with the final try of the game. Fox converted to give a final score of City of Armagh 29 Ballynahinch 0.
