De Couvreur took up the game of rugby after watching the Canadian 7s win bronze at the 2016 Summer Olympics, switching over from soccer. Two years later she competed at the 2018 Summer Youth Olympics where she won a bronze medal as part of the Canadian national team that competed at those games.

In 2022, De Couvreur competed for Canada at the Rugby World Cup Sevens in Cape Town. They placed sixth overall after losing to Fiji in the fifth place final.
