He accepted an offer to coach basketball at Villanova College, and worked various jobs, eventually joining Suncorp Metway as a project manager. In 2008 Kyle and his second wife Jane became coach and team manager respectively of the Brisbane Spinning Bullets, Queensland's National Wheelchair Basketball League (NWBL) team. Through this he got to know Ben Ettridge, who coached a rival NWBL team, the Perth Wheelcats, but also the Australian men's national wheelchair basketball team, known as the Rollers. At Ettridge's invitation, he participated in a national training camp in Canberra.
