History

The club was established in 1996 as Black Country Rangers. [1] In 2007 they joined Division Two of the West Midlands (Regional) League. [2] The club were Division Two champions in 2009–10, earning promotion to Division One. They were Division One champions the following season and were promoted to the Premier Division. [2]

Black Country Rangers' first season in the Premier Division saw them finish as runners-up. [2] The club also won the JW Hunt Cup, beating AFC Wulfrunians 4–3 in the final. [3] They retained the cup the following season with a 4–3 win over Wolverhampton Casuals. [3] In 2018 the club was restructured and renamed Black Country Football Club, although the first team continued to play under the name Black Country Rangers. [4]

At the end of the 2020–21 season Black Country Rangers were transferred to Division One of the Midland League when the Premier Division of the West Midlands (Regional) League lost its status as a step six division. The club finished fifth in Division One in 2022–23, qualifying for the promotion play-offs. They subsequently lost 1–0 to Ashby Ivanhoe in the semi-finals.

In 2023 the club was renamed OJM Community Football Club and relocated to the Triplex Sports Ground in Kings Norton, Birmingham.
