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 High School hosted Regent House at Barban Hill in the Danske Bank Ulster Schools’ Cup 2nd Round.

It was a game where defences dominated with chances few and far between in a tense first half,

Regent took the lead, courtesy of a penalty goal, minutes before half time. Dromore drew level with the last kick of the half when Rhys Dale’s penalty goal was successful to leave the score 3 – 3 at the break.

It was much the same fare early in the second half. Midway through the half Dromore found space on the left to allow to touch down for an unconverted try in the corner.

Dromore’s lead was only to last a few minutes, when barrelled his way over for a try, converted by Martin.

Despite their best efforts, both teams failed to score again leaving, Regent 10 – 8 winners and looking forward to a 3rd Round tie at home to Bangor GS.
