He was named the Greatest Ever Irish Rugby Player by the Irish Rugby Football Union in 2002.[7] Kyle was educated at Belfast Royal Academy and studied medicine at Queen's University, Belfast. He graduated in 1951 and in 1991, he was awarded an Honorary Doctorate by the University.[8] In 2007, he was awarded a Lifetime Achievement Award by the Irish Journal of Medical Science and the Royal Academy of Medicine in Ireland.[9] He was awarded an OBE in 1959.[10] Rugby internationalIrelandKyle first played for Ireland during the Second World War in a friendly against a British Army XV. However, no caps were awarded.[11] He made his official debut for Ireland on 25 January 1947 against France in the 1947 Five Nations Championship in an 8–12 defeat Lansdowne Road.[12][13]
Between 1947 and 1958, while playing for Ireland, he went on to make 46 full appearances and score 24 points, including 7 tries.[14] The highlight of his Ireland career came during the 1948 Five Nations Championship when, together with Karl Mullen and Mick O'Flanagan, he helped Ireland win a grand slam.[3] Kyle played in all four games and he is often credited with masterminding Ireland's success.[15] In 1949, he also helped Ireland win the Triple Crown and in 1951, they won the title again. Kyle made his last appearance for Ireland against Scotland on 1 March 1958. Following a solo try against France at Ravenhill in 1953, an impressed newspaper journalist parodied The Scarlet Pimpernel with the lines: They seek him here, they seek him there British and Irish LionsIn 1950, Kyle also played for the British Lions on their tour to New Zealand and Australia. He played in 20 of the 29 games, including all six Tests. Among his tour highlights was a display that came in the first Test, a 9–9 draw with New Zealand. Of the Lions' nine points, Kyle scored a try, created another for Ken Jones and won a penalty that was converted by John Robins. During the tour, he also scored a try in the 24–3 defeat of Australia.[4][5] BarbariansKyle made eight appearances for the Barbarian F.C.'s between 1948 and 1954, scoring three points in total.[16] Later yearsAfter retiring from club rugby in 1963, Kyle embarked on humanitarian work in Sumatra and Indonesia.
