During his time as a rugby player, he also worked as a milkman in Chickenley and later moved to the managerial side at Associated Dairies. After retiring from playing rugby he had a spell coaching at Dewsbury Celtic but spent most of his time looking after pubs and clubs in the area including; Dewsbury Irish National League Club (known locally as Dewsbury Nash), and Hanging Heaton cricket club (in a relief capacity).
