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.

Dromore entertained Dublin side Suttonians at Barban Hill on Saturday afternoon in a first round All Ireland Junior Cup match.

Dromore took an early lead with a try on the 6th minute from Andrew Rutledge. TJ Morris added the extras to give the home side a 7 – 0 lead.

In a tight first half it was nearly a full half hour before the scoreboard was troubled again, the next score a penalty from Dromore’s Andrew Black on the 33rd minute to extend the lead to 10 – 0 and that’s how it stayed until the half time break

Things continued to be tight in the third quarter but Dromore were able to open up in the last fifteen minutes when they ran in four more tries for a convincing win.

Adam McDonald started the try fest on the 63rd minute before Rutledge scored his second, eight minutes later. Adam McDonald Junior then got in on the act with their 4th try before Morris finished things off by converting his own 80th minute try to add to two earlier second half conversions.
