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.

We caught up with the rearranged Ulster Rugby Schools Bowl match between Dromore High and Royal School Dungannon on Wednesday afternoon at a cold Barban Hill.

Dungannon were first on the scoreboard with their big No 8, Isaac Busby crashing over in the corner for a 0 – 5 lead.

Isaac Busby battles over the line for Dungannon’s first try.

Dromore didn’t take long to reply and their forwards drove over with No 2, Harry Cromie rising with the ball. Daniel Ennis-McManus added the extra 2 points to put Dromore ahead 7 – 5.

Dungannon went back in front when a bit of indiscipline cost Dromore, James Gibson slotting home a penalty for the visitors to take the score to 7 – 8. Dungannon were on a roll now and their forwards drove through the middle with their No 6, Angus Lambe burrowing his way across the line, Gibson converting to push it out . . .
