Club career
García began his senior career with Oro for the 1962–63 Mexican Primera División season where he made his debut in a 1–1 draw against 29 July 1962 against Deportivo Toluca. Despite being part of the only winning squad in the club's history that won the tournament that season, he was not renewed for an additional contract due to tight competition from other players such as Felipe Ruvalcaba, Rogelio González Navarro, Nicola Gravina, Amaury Epaminondas Manoel Tavares Necco, and spent the following few seasons without an active club. It wouldn't be until the 1966–67 Mexican Primera División season where he would sign with Jabatos de Nuevo León after club forward Leonardo Barba had recommended him to them. After playing with the club until their relegation in the 1968–69 Mexican Primera División season. This then prompted him to play for Torreón for a season before sticking with Monterrey for the subsequent three seasons. He spent his final seasons with Veracruz, Ciudad Madero and Tampico before retiring after the 1975–76 Mexican Segunda División season.[1][2][3]

García was called up to play in the 1969 CONCACAF Championship as a substitute player but wouldn't make any appearances throughout the tournament.[4]
