Club Youth: Instonians U14 50 Malone U14 17

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.

Two of our club member sides enjoyed at “return to rugby” hit out yesterday morning as Instonians U14 entertained Malone U14 at Shaws Bridge.

Instonians U14 met Malone U14 yesterday lunchtime, for a 3 x 20 minute ‘hit out’ at Shaw’s Bridge.

Instonians on the charge against Malone

Both teams were happy to get some competitive rugby after the long lay off and with neither side playing a kicking game both teams attempted to run the ball out of defense, exploiting gaps.

In a fast paced, entertaining game, it was Instonians that shook of the cobwebs quickest with a big win but the scoreline did not reflect the efforts of a very hard working Malone team.

Malone look to break free of the Instonians defence.

The players, coaches and parents were all happy to get some outdoor activities underway after a disruptive year.
