At the Games, Vasser was part of the fourth French team. Having no opponent in the semifinals, she immediately went to the semifinals, where she was beaten by the Belgian team. The match for third place did not pass, and therefore Vasser immediately received a bronze medal.
Vasser was also a member of his country's water polo team, which performed at the 1912 and 1920 Summer Olympics . In both cases, his team lost in the first rounds of the playoffs and did not go to the next stages, including tournaments for second and third places.
