History

The Association was formed in 1908 with friendly games and a knock-out competition (Chatrian Cup). It was not until 1922 that a league competition was introduced, originally with three Senior Divisions and two Junior Divisions. This has grown to the current Premier Division and a further 8 lower Divisions. While there is promotion and relegation between Divisions One to Seven, the four teams that finish at the bottom of the Premier Division instead have to apply for re-election, and any team from a lower division can in theory apply to replace them as long as they meet facilities criteria. After 108 years as the Birmingham AFA a vote was taken by the Association's members for the 2015-16 season to end the Association status and change the name of the organisation to the Birmingham & District Football League.
