History

Pack Meadow

Coleshill Town were established in 1894 and joined the Midland Combination Division Two in 1967. In 1970 they won this division and were promoted to Division One, where they remained for the next thirty years (during which the division was renamed the Premier Division). In 2000 they were relegated but bounced back at the first attempt.

In the 2007–08 season Coleshill were crowned champions of the Midland Combination Premier Division. Pack Meadow has recently had a new 70 seater stand built to meet regulations for the Midland Football Alliance.

In the 2009–10 season, the club finished in the top eight of Midland Alliance, but lost in the semi-finals of the League Cup. Dosthill Colts shared the Pack Meadow stadium in the 2010–11 season, then later merged with Coleshill Town.
