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.

Enniskillen Royal Grammar continued their dominance of the Girls Schools Cup with a hard fought win against, near neighbours, Erne Integrated College at Ravenhill on Wednesday morning. However, Erne pushed them all the way in this entertaining X7s final.

Lucy Thompson breaks clear for the opening score.

The Grammar’s Lucy Thompson started the scoreboard ticking over with the first of two tries with Catherine Graham and Jodie Browne following soon after as the Royal’s raced to a 4 – 0 lead. However, Erne’s Moya Hill and Cora Balfour pulled it back to 4 – 2 at the end of the first quarter.

The second quarter ended at 6 – 4 as Hill crossed for her second to be joined by co-captain Sophie Barrett. Lea Williamson and Thompson keeping the Grammar in front.

In a powerful third quarter Thompson crossed for two more, to take her personal total to five, with Enniskillen captain India Daley crossing for a brace. Balfour and Barrett each scored for Erne but the Grammar had extended their lead to 10 – 6 as the teams went into the final quarter.

India Daley powers clear for Enniskillen.

Barrett led the charge for Erne in the final quarter with two tries to ad to one from Balfour, but a Graham brace kept Enniskillen in front to secure the Cup at the final whistle.
