Fulgence Ouedraogo (born 21 July 1986 in Ouagadougou, Burkina Faso) is a French rugby union footballer. He currently plays for Montpellier Hérault RC in the Top 14 championship. His usual position is as a flanker.
Ouedraogo started playing rugby at 6, meeting his MHRC teammate François Trinh-Duc, at the Pic-Saint-Loup rugby school near Montpellier.[1] They both entered the club's youth teams at "Cadet" level (U-13/14). These two are said to be inseparable friends.
With fellow Montpellierains Louis Picamoles and Julien Tomas, they're considered part of the young trio of home-grown talents embodying the success of MHRC's attempt at "shaking up the old order" of French rugby in the Septimanie terroir which had always been historical rival Béziers's stronghold [2].
He was also included in France's mid-year Test squad for 2007 in the two game series against the All Blacks in New Zealand and later called up by Marc Lièvremont in the French Squad for the 2008 Six Nations Championship.
