Thank you for applying. A confirmation has been sent to your email and our team will be in touch soon.
We don't just hire coaches — we hire role models. Here's exactly what we look for in every candidate who joins the Touchline family.
You bring the same passion and intensity to your 8th session of the week as you did to your first. Kids feed off your energy — so yours must be unmatched.
You can shift seamlessly from an engaging grassroots session for 4-year-olds to a competitive, tactical drill for 16-year-olds. Age groups don't faze you.
Your sessions are structured, purposeful and measurable — but still exciting. Players leave every session better than they arrived AND with a smile on their face.
You communicate progress clearly and professionally. Parents trust you, respect you, and feel confident their child is in the right hands.
You show up. Every time. Players and families depend on consistency. We need coaches who take their scheduled sessions seriously and go beyond just coach-and-go.
You understand multicultural dynamics, can adapt your communication style, and thrive in a diverse, fast-paced academy environment across Dubai locations.
One of Dubai's fastest-growing academies. Real players. Real families. Real impact.
Market-rate salary / attractive per-session rates. Full-time coaches get performance incentives as the academy grows.
High performers get promoted. As we expand across Dubai and UAE, we promote from within — senior and lead coach roles open up fast.
Football every day. With kids who genuinely love the game. In world-class facilities at Al Ahli Club, Al Nahda and Al Warqa.
A positive, multicultural, and supportive team. We share ideas, we back each other, and we celebrate wins together.
Al Nahda (near Stadium Metro) & Al Warqa — easily accessible, modern facilities with parking and great infrastructure.
Access to internal coaching workshops, curriculum feedback sessions, and support for upgrading your coaching licence while you work.
Sessions run in the late afternoons and evenings on weekdays, and during the day on weekends. You'll be running structured training sessions for mixed age groups (4–18+) across our Al Nahda and Al Warqa locations. Each session has a warm-up, skill drills, small-sided games, and a cool-down debrief.
Yes — part-time coach roles (Football & Basketball, 2 days/week) require you to already hold a valid UAE residency visa. This is perfect for PE teachers, fitness instructors, or coaches with a primary job. Full-time roles may include visa consideration for qualified candidates.
A coaching licence (UEFA, AFC, CAF, UAEFA or national equivalent) is preferred but not always required — we value real experience with youth players. What matters most is your energy, personality, and genuine passion for developing kids through football.
Use the application form above — choose Senior Coach or Assistant Coach, add your photo, fill in your details and upload your CV. We review all applications and aim to respond within 3–5 business days.
