History

The club was established in 1998 as the reserve team of Castle Vale Kings Heath. They joined Division Three of the Midland Combination in 2003, and were runners-up in their first season, earning promotion to Division Two. In 2005 the team were renamed Castle Vale Reserves as the club changed its name, and in 2006 they became a separate club under the name Castle Vale JKS, JKS standing for Junior Kick Stars, the youth team that merged with the reserves to form a new club; a new Castle Vale reserve team was subsequently formed and joined Division Three of the Midland Combination in 2007.

The new Castle Vale JKS started in Division Three of the Midland Combination, but won the division at the first attempt. They went on to win Division Two and the league's Challenge Vase the following season.[1] A third successive title and promotion was secured when they won Division One in 2008–09, with the club also winning the league's Challenge Cup, a trophy they won again in 2010–11.[1] Although the club finished bottom of the Premier Division in 2011–12 and 2012–13, they were not relegated to Division One. However, they resigned from the league midway through the 2013–14 season.

The club was reformed as Castle Vale Town and in 2016 they joined the Division Three of the Midland League, formed in 2014 by a merger of the Midland Combination and the Midland Alliance. In their first season they finished bottom of Division Three.
