A native of Toulouse, Ougier spent most of his career at hometown club Stade Toulousain, where he played in six French Championship-winning teams. He also featured in Stade Toulousain's 1996 Heineken Cup final win over Cardiff.[2]
Capped four times for France, Ougier debuted at fullback against Romania at Le Harve in 1992, kicking two conversions in a 19-point win, then later that year played against the Pumas on a tour of Argentina. In 1993, Ougier was a substitute in a Five Nations loss to England at Twickenham Stadium. His final appearance came as a winger against Italy in 1997.[3]
Ougier was involved in a road accident on 25 May 1995 which caused the death of a 19-year old motorcyclist. He received a five-month prison sentence in October 1995 for “manslaughter and hit and run”.[4][5]
An engineer by profession, Ougier is an executive at French multinational company ALTEN.[6]
