Milltown won the Junior Championship in 2008 defeating Robertstown by a single point. Emmet Mullhall is Milltown's most famous present player, having been a member of the Kildare panel on the county's last appearance in an All-Ireland final in 1998. Colin O'Shea, a real star for the future, played in the 2009 Minor Leinster final.

At some underage grades Milltown, along with Allenwood, Ballyteague & Robertstown, form part of the highly successful combined Parish of Allen club, Na Fianna.

Milltown have been affiliated to the GAA since 1888, and have affiliated each year since.

Adding to their history, the Milltown U21s team were the first 21s team of Milltown to win a Championship Title in November 2017.

Unfortunately this year Milltown G.A.A. lost out to one of its most finest players of recent history. Jonathan Dunne left the club to pursue some of his other goals in life. He still plays with the B team and also participates in a semi-successful golf career.
