Inducted into the Canadian Soccer Hall of Fame and Museum in 2005, Colin Miller has developed with Whitecaps FC throughout their time as a North American second division club. Miller helped the Blue and White to a second-place finish in the NASL Conference of the United States Soccer Federation Division-2 Professional League (USSF D-2) and a semi-final berth in the playoffs. Working primarily on defensive matters, Miller's efforts resulted in a league low 22 goals conceded in USSF D-2 and a single-season club record of 18 shutouts.
With over a decade of experience as a professional coach, Miller's first coaching role came in Scotland with Hamilton Academical, where he served as player-manager between July 1998 and August 1999. His coaching resume includes a short spell as first-team coach at Derby County FC during the 2007-08 English Premier League season, as well as stints as an assistant to both the Canadian men's and women's national teams. Miller also served as interim head coach of the Canadian men's national team during three friendly matches versus Finland (October 11, 2003), Czech Republic (November 15, 2003), and Republic of Ireland (November 18, 2003).
Miller enjoyed a long and distinguished playing career that spanned two decades in Canada, England, and Scotland. He made 61 senior international appearances for Canada between 1983 and 1997, with his debut coming as an 18-year-old in a 2-0 friendly defeat to his birth nation Scotland on June 19, 1983. Not only did Miller serve as national team captain, he was also a member of the Canadian team that appeared at the 1986 FIFA World Cup in Mexico. The midfielder's appearances also included Canada's qualifying campaigns for the 1990, 1994, and 1998 FIFA World Cup tournaments. Miller also captained Canada at the 1982 CONCACAF U-20 Championship in Guatemala.
