well a lot of the 'casual GAA' clubs that used to use the parks to play have now folded
eg Park Rangers

Park Strangers amalgamated with Liffey Gaels

On the other hand, similar culchie clubs like Ranelagh Gaels, Na Gael Óga & Realt Dearg are going really well
While Ranelagh Gaels might be regarded as a "culchie club" before and  operating out of a pub they have a number of juvenile teams now. A lot of the properties in Ranelagh, Rathmines which were flats are now family homes and Ranelagh Gaels are trying to build a club around those families

Am aware of that and cited them as an example of a club who 10/15 years ago were playing a different team of culchie bangers every week with one adult team in the lower Junior divisions.
