Club Men: Kukri Ulster Rugby Div 2 Wrap

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.

There were a couple of important fixtures in the Kukri Ulster Rugby Championship Division 2 over the weekend with Ballymoney looking to put pressure on Randalstown for the promotion play off place and UUC looking to get clear of the relegation play offs.

UUC benefited the most over the weekend with their bonus point win against Larne lifting them clear of the relegation play offs, for the time being at least.

Ards2621Ballymoney
Grosvenor5414Limavady
UUC3520Larne

Grosvenor, who won the league a few weeks ago continued on their winning ways with a convincing win against Limavady but Ards’ bonus point win against Ballymoney has hampered the Toons hopes for a promotion play off place with Randalstown now five points clear with a game in hand and two to play.

As said earlier UUC’s bonus point win against Larne lifts them a point clear of Lisburn who drop into the relegation play off place. Both teams still have three to play and I suspect this one will go down to the wire.

The current standings are shown below.
