He can play as both a full-back and on the wing and is described by assistant national team coach Émile Ntamack as an "incredible talent" that, during the 2010–11 season, was finally "realizing his potential".

Médard began his rugby union career playing for local club Blagnac as a youth.

Médard achieved numerous honours as a youth winning the Gaudermen Challenge in three straight years from 2001 to 2003.

[2] Médard burst onto the scene domestically in the 2007–08 season primarily due to injuries to Vincent Clerc and Clément Poitrenaud.
