Club U18 Plate: Rainey Old Boys 24 Letterkenny 20 Final.

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.

Due to a delayed kick off and the need to leave earlier due to roadworks on the M2 I only caught the first half of the Club U18 Plate Final between Rainey Old Boys RFC and Letterkenney RFC on Saturday morning at Meadowbank Sports Arena.

The two teams were chomping at the bit bu the time they got on the pitch for this one but it was the “home side” Rainey that had the better of the opening exchanges running in a try after 4 minutes from their outside centre.

Rainey’s outside centre opened the scoring against Letterkenny

Seven minutes later a nice line out and quick hands saw the Rainey right wing go over for their second which was converted to give Rainey a 12 – 0 lead and it looked like it was going to be a long day for Letterkenny!
