Post-playing career After his retirement from playing, Outridge was employed by Alfred Sandover's sporting goods company, Harris, Scarfe and Sandover's, along with Allan Evans, whom he had previously played with at Perth. Outridge also served as a commentator for WANFL matches on the radio, as well occupying the roles of secretary (from 1935 to 1940) and later president (in the 1941 season) of the Subiaco Football Club. He was made a life member of the club in 1935, and a life member of the league in 1956. In 1944, Outridge served as a goal umpire for a football match between two Royal Australian Air Force (RAAF) units at Kalgoorlie. He later bought a hotel in Bunbury, which he worked at until his retirement. Outridge died in 1973 in Perth.

Honoured The Tom Outridge Medal is awarded each season to the Subiaco Football Club's best and fairest player.

A street in Subiaco, Outridge Crescent, is named after him.

In 2004, Cazaly Resources, an Australian gold exploration company, named a discovery near Kunanalling "Outridge Prospect" after him.
