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 were the visitors on Saturday morning to Belfast Met for an Ulster U18 Provincial League game.

Belfast Met started with a bang with Ethan Graham converting his own try with only a minute gone. Daniel Porter’s try, out wide, converted by Graham doubled the lead to 14 – 0 after 5 minutes.

City of Armagh were living off scraps at this time unable to get out of their own half.

Graham tries on 15 and 22 minutes, both of which he converted, doubled Belfast Met’s lead to 28-0.

Cameron Patterson‘s unconverted try after 31 minutes, compounded Armagh’s problems and when Graham converted his own try on the halftime whistle Armagh found themselves 40-0 down.

The game was called at halftime and, as such, a 40 victory in Belfast Met’s favour recorded on the Ulster Rugby website.

Thereafter for the second period both teams ran attacking and defensive phases and shared 2 tries, Graham scored again for Belfast Met and Callum Clarke for Armagh.

Belfast Met can be more than satisfied with their performance, against an Armagh team, who showed a lot of grit.
