Add in players who are away angus adair, euan mcgee, Stuart Cameron (UNI) Aj hussell (royal navy).

They have some serious talent available to them and appear to be very popular the way they are going about their rugby.

See Hinch beat anther team that’s been paying players to reach Senior Cup Final…should be a great final of running rugby between them and Queens. Also Great to see Armagh in the 1A mix next year, hopefully they can survive the learning curve of getting adjusted the cut throat nature of the top Division

Great to see another ulster club making the step up, especially a relatively new club with a strong cross community base.

Really is a fantastic achievement, congrats to them! Seems to have been a successful year for clubs in Ulster

Banbridge and Malone drop from 1B to 2A
Dungannon in playoff final for promotion to 2A
Queens Promoted to 1B
Instonians promoted to 2B
Clogher Valley Promoted to 2C

1A - Armagh and Ballynahinch
1B - Queens
2A - Ballymena (Dungannon),Malone, Banbridge
2B - (Dungannon) Harlequins, Rainey, Instonians
2C - Clogher, Bangor, Omagh

I don't think Ulster players can be released to 2A clubs so be interesting to see how Banbridge and Malone get on next season

Only Academy and Development players can play below 1B, given that Ulster have gone all in with the Queens partnership and academy players playing there, it’s hard to imagine those clubs in 2A having many contracted players.
