His senior career began with Dunedin City and later Mosgiel, before he moved to Australia to join Sydney Olympic in the National Soccer League.[1] He returned to New Zealand after a single season to join Christchurch United where he won back-to-back Jack Batty Memorial Trophies contesting the Chatham Cup final on the winning side in 1989 and the losing side in 1990.[2]
McGarry scored in his full All Whites début in a 4-2 win over Fiji on 17 September 1986[3] and ended his international playing career having pulled on the all white shirt 87 times,[4] including 54 A-international caps in which he scored 12 goals,[5][6] earning his final cap in a 0-5 loss to Indonesia on 21 September 1997.[3]
