In 1925, McAuley moved to the United States and signed with the Providence Clamdiggers of the American Soccer League. He played two and a half seasons in Providence before transferring to the Fall River Marksmen half way through the 1927-1928 season. He remained with the Marksmen until the spring of 1930. That year, Fall River defeated Cleveland Bruell Insurance in the 1930 National Challenge Cup. McAuley scored Fall River’s second goal in the Marksmen’s 2-1 second game victory.

He then returned to Canada where he played for Bluebonnets when they won the Quebec Cup on September 1930.

In 1932, he transferred to Chelsea F.C. in the Football League. He spent part of four seasons with Chelsea before moving to Cardiff City for a season. In 1937, he signed as a player-manager with Sligo Rovers of the Football League of Ireland.
