Old Wulfrunians Football Club was established in 1922.[1] They joined the Birmingham Amateur Football Alliance league system. They were Premier Division champions in 1932–33 and again in 1953–54, 1979–80 and 1991–92.[2] After winning the Premier Division title and Senior Cup double for three successive seasons between 2002–03 and 2004–05,[2] the club formed a new team under the name A.F.C. Wulfrunians in order to enter senior football, joining Division Two of the West Midlands (Regional) League,[3] although the club continued playing in the Birmingham AFA under the Old Wulfrunians name.

In their first season, A.F.C. Wulfrunians won the Division Two title, earning promotion to Division One. They were Division One runners-up the following season, resulting in promotion to the Premier Division.[3] After winning the Birmingham Midweek Floodlit Cup in 2007–08,[1] the 2008–09 season saw the club win the Premier Division title. However, they were denied promotion to the Midland Alliance as their ground did not meet the necessary criteria.[1] Following a move to the Castlecroft Stadium, the club won the Premier Division again in 2012–13 after winning their final match of the season at Malvern Town 2–0,[4] and were promoted to the Midland Alliance.[3]
