Rugby career edit

Dupouy was called into France's squad as a replacement for their star scrum-half, Laure Sansus, who sustained a knee injury in their pool game against England at the delayed 2021 Rugby World Cup.[1][2] However, after arriving in New Zealand she was placed in solitary confinement due to a positive COVID test.[3][4]

Dupouy was named in France's squad for the 2023 Women's Six Nations Championship.[5][6]
