History
Redditch Borough Football Club was formed in May 2006 originally starting out as a junior football club with only an under 10's team managed by current first team manager Julian Workman.
The club applied for the club to join the Midland Football League in 2014 and was accepted into Division 3. The club finished 4th in its first season in the league and achieved promotion the following season to Division 2 after finishing as runners up.
The 2016–17 season saw the club enter the FA Vase for the first time, but they were beaten 5–2 by premier side Rocester F.C. The same season, the club finished 1st place in Division Two but eventually this was taken away from them due to a 3-point deduction as the club was found guilty of fielding an illegible player against Paget Rangers, so finished in fourth place. The club currently remains in Division Two.
Ground
Since 2017, the club has been based at their home Redditch Borough Community Sports & Social Club, Cherry Tree Walk, Batchley, Redditch, Worcestershire.
