Scott Miller Joins Rimal Al-Sahra as Assistant Coach
Rimal Al-Sahra SC are pleased to welcome Scott Miller to the club as Assistant Coach.
Miller joins Rich Peniket's staff here in Dubai, bringing elite standards and a depth of experience as the club pushes on in a new league.
A career at the highest level
Miller has worked at the top of the game. In 2013 he was an Assistant Coach with the Australia national team, working under Ange Postecoglou and supporting elite match preparation, performance delivery and high-performance player environments at international level.
Before that came almost nine years at Fulham. He joined the London club in August 2006 as First Team Fitness Coach, took on the role of First Team Technical Coach in 2010, and finished his time there as U23 Coach in the 2014/15 season. Close to a decade at one club, spanning the physical, technical and development sides of the game.
He has also led his own teams. Miller was Head Coach at Newcastle Jets from May 2015 to October 2016, responsible for first-team performance, squad leadership and delivering results in a high-pressure A-League environment. He then moved to Denmark as Assistant Coach at AaB in Aalborg, supporting first-team performance, match preparation and player development in a top-tier European league, before returning to Australia for five years as Head Coach at Langwarrin SC in Melbourne.
Qualifications and media work
His coaching career across professional football, international football and elite player development is supported by the AFC Pro Licence and the UEFA A Licence, alongside qualifications in Exercise and Sport Science and in Sport Psychology.
Away from the training pitch, Miller is a familiar voice in broadcast football. He worked as a football analyst and commentator for FOX SPORTS Australia from 2018 to 2021 and for Paramount+ from 2021 to 2023, delivering match insight and tactical breakdowns. He continues to contribute to the game through media, commentary, analysis and thought leadership, helping translate performance, leadership and industry trends for a broader audience.
In his own words
I am delighted to be joining Rimal Al-Sahra and to be working alongside Rich and the staff here in Dubai. The direction this club is moving in is clear, and I am excited to play my part in it.
Scott Miller, Assistant Coach
Welcome to the club, Scott.
