RTB Ebbw Vale FC was formed in 1951 as part of the then Richard Thomas & Baldwin Steel Company (social section) and entered the Ebbw Vale & District League. In the early 1960s RTB, as they were to be known, joined the Mon Senior League. The club won the Mon Senior Cup in 1969-70 and were finalists in 1971 and 1973.

In 1980 the Mon Senior League was amalgamated with the Gwent Premier League to form the Gwent County League. As coach, Mike Cope led the club to promotion to the First Division of the Gwent County League as Division Two Champions in 1993–94 and Mike Williams, as player/manager led them to promotion to the Welsh Football League Division Three in 2000–01. In 2002 the club were runners up in the Gwent Senior Cup, losing 4–1 to Newport County at Caldicot. After two seasons in the Welsh League the club were relegated back into the Gwent County and have fluctuated between the First and Second Divisions ever since.
On 9 June 2022, it was announced that the club had been promoted to the tier 3 Ardal SE League for the 2022–23 season via the vacancy route.[1]
