In addition to his duties in the club, he was the assistant coach of the then joint national team of Serbia and Montenegro at the 2006 World Cup. In April 2008, after the resignation of Stevan Karadžić, he took over the position of head coach at Red Star and remained in this position until the end of the 2007/08 season. His successor was Svetislav Pešić .

In the 2008/09 season, Škobalj worked as an assistant coach at the Ukrainian capital club BC Kiev , and in August 2009 he took over the position of head coach at the Danish first division club Hørsholm 79ers .

After the end of the 2011/12 season, his tenure with the Danish club ended.

In 2012/13 he worked as head coach of the Moroccan club Sport Plazza Casablanca, in 2013/14 he coached Amal Essaouira (also in Morocco).

Rostock's sporting director Jens Hakanowitz , who had played under the Serb at the Hørsholm 79ers, was responsible for his commitment . He led the Mecklenburgers in the 2018/19 season as a league newcomer to the ProA championship round, where they lost to the future champions Hamburg. At the beginning of January 2020, Škobalj was dismissed in Rostock as a result of an 82:72 home win against Schwenningen, because the sports management of the Rostock team was concerned about the "current situation" and was not satisfactory. Under the Serbian, the Mecklenburgers had won seven games and lost ten in the season so far. Dirk Bauermann was his successor in Rostock .
