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.

A dominant first half from Ulster U19 set the scene for a convincing win against their Connacht counterparts at Bangor Grammar yesterday afternoon.

An early try from Ryan O’Neill and a brace from Thomas Armstrong, all converted, saw Ulster turn round with a 21 – 0 lead.

Connacht got on the score sheet at the start of the second half with an Evan Kenny try before Ulster’s Robbie Mathers crossed to take the score to 26 – 5.

The much improved Connacht crossed through Joshua Dunne when Ulster’s Riley Westwood took a 10 minute rest but the game was wrapped up before his return when Ulster’ Joel Dundas crossed for their fifth try to take the score to 33 – 10.

Connacht’s replacement scrum half scored a consolation try towards the end of the game giving a final score of Ulster U19 33 Connacht U19 17
