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.

Grosvenor Grammar hosted Mount Kelly School from Tavistock in Devon on Saturday morning in a game totally dominated by the elements.

Report and pictures Bob Given Photography

An icy easterly wind blew across the pitch numbing the players (& photographer!) making handling a lottery.

Both teams found difficulty in putting phases together and there was little continuity, as, at times, the game degenerated into a series of scrums and line outs.

Breaks were few and far between in Saturday’s wintry conditions.

The Mount Kelly left wing squeezed in at a corner midway through the first half for an unconverted try and the English side carried that lead into half time.

The second half was the same fare, though Mount Kelly handled the elements better, scoring 2 converted tries.

Mount Kelly fared better in the second half.

Try as they might, Grosvenor only made occasional forays into the Mount Kelly half, before mishandling the ball, let them down.

Mount Kelly deserved their 19 – 0 win, because of their control in the 2nd half.
