The Park/Ratheniska GAA Club has an especially vibrant Juvenile Club catering for all ages from Under 6's all the way up to U20 in both codes. Each Sunday morning in the GAA Grounds children from all ages are coached and play Gaelic Games under the supervision of trained coaches.
Like our Adult Club, we amalgamate at underage level under the Park/Ratheniska-Timahoe Hurling Club, which caters for hurlers in both our Club and the neighbouring football only Clubs.
