Cadbury Heath Football Club was formed in 1894.[2] The club joined the Gloucestershire County League in 1968 as founder members. Between 1970 and 1974 the club won the league on four successive occasions.

After finishing runners-up in 1999–2000, Cadbury joined the Western League Division One, where they remained until the end of the 2011–12 season when they were promoted to the Western League Premier Division as Champions.
