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 Medallion Plate Semi Final between Campbell College and Rainey Endowed at Fox’s Field on Saturday morning.

Campbell at home on Fox’s field was always going to be a huge ask for the Rainey lads. Smarting from their loss to Coleraine in the Shield, Campbell needed to show their quality and they did, in some style.

Rainey kicked off and for a brief spell enjoyed some territorial advantage. This was to be an infrequent excursion into the opposition half as Campbell, playing in white, worked their way upfield and on the 10 minute mark were on the scoreboard after some slick handling through the backs finished off by right wing Charlie Irvin neatly sidestepping the scattered defence. The conversion was accurate by full back Fergus Bevan.
