https://keepcalm.fit/meetup/padel

Join us for padel - open to all levels, organised by Keep Calm, a not-for-profit community for English speakers in Barcelona.

**What to expect**
We run multiple courts across different time slots, organised by skill level. Whether it's your first time picking up a racket or you're a seasoned player, there's a group for you. Levels follow Playtomic scoring: Beginner (first time), Improver (0-1), Intermediate (1-2), and Advanced (2+).

**How it works**
A sign-up form opens regularly in the WhatsApp group. Vote for the time slots you're available, and we'll organise your court during the week. Everyone who votes gets a guaranteed spot - that's our commitment to every member.

**Cost**
Around €5-8 per person for 1 to 1.5 hours. Racket rental is available at the venue for €3 if you need one.

**After the game**
Many of us meet up at a nearby bar for drinks and food afterwards. It's a great way to wind down and get to know people.

**How to join**
RSVP here on Meetup, then join our WhatsApp group at https://keepcalm.fit/meetup/padel - this is where the sign-up form and all organisation happens, and you must be in the group before you can come to a session. Day, time, and venue are shared there, so read the pinned info or ask the group if you're not sure.

https://keepcalm.fit/meetup/climbing

Join Keep Calm Climbing for a session at one of Barcelona's climbing gyms. Most sessions are indoor bouldering, with rope climbing when the venue and group suit it, plus occasional trips to the rock outside the city. We rotate between gyms depending on what the group fancies.

**What to expect**
- Mostly indoor bouldering - no ropes, no partner, no experience needed
- Friendly, mixed-ability group - all levels welcome
- Newcomers shown the basics by people who have climbed before
- Walls are low with thick mats below, routes colour-graded from easy to hard
- Plenty of resting and chatting between problems, with drinks after some sessions

**Cost**
You pay the gym entry directly. Indoor day passes are typically €10-16 depending on the venue, with shoe rental a few euros on top if you need it. No Keep Calm membership fee.

**What to bring**
Comfortable, stretchy clothing you can move in, water, and climbing shoes if you own them (otherwise rent at the gym). For rope sessions, bring a harness and belay device if you have them, or rent at the desk and let an experienced member know you're new to ropes.

**How to join**
RSVP here on Meetup, then join our WhatsApp group at https://keepcalm.fit/meetup/climbing - this is where all the organisation happens, and you must be in the group before you can come to a session. Sessions are posted there with the gym, day, time, and entry cost. Respond to confirm so we know numbers, then turn up at the gym and look for the group.

https://keepcalm.fit/meetup/badminton

Social badminton for English speakers in Barcelona. Part of the Keep Calm community - a not-for-profit, volunteer-run sports and social network for the city's English-speaking community, run in partnership with BCN Badminton.

**What to expect**
Friendly doubles practice games, with players rotating across 4 courts so everyone gets plenty of court time. This is social badminton, not a competition - good-natured games with good people.

**Skill level**
Currently a lower-intermediate level. Mixed group, ladies and gents, all ages welcome. Be honest about your level when you RSVP so the games stay enjoyable for everyone.

**Cost**
5€ per person, which covers the court hire and shuttlecocks, paid to the host on the day. Bring the exact amount in cash (no change available), or pay by Bizum or transfer.

**What to bring**
Your own racket, indoor court shoes with non-marking soles, and water.

**Spots and waitlist**
Limited to 24 players. There's an automatic waitlist - if it's full, RSVP anyway and you'll be moved up if someone drops out. Please only RSVP yes if you can make it, and cancel as early as possible if your plans change. Changing your RSVP within 24 hours of the event counts as a no-show unless someone takes your spot.

Join us for weekly doubles tennis, organised by Keep Calm, a not-for-profit sports community for English speakers in Barcelona.

**What to expect**
90 minutes of doubles tennis (2v2) in a friendly, relaxed atmosphere. We travel to the venue together as a group, so no one has to figure out the journey alone.

**Skill level**
All levels from complete beginners to intermediates are welcome. We use four levels (Beginner, Improver, Intermediate, Advanced) to organise courts when numbers allow, so games feel balanced and enjoyable for everyone.

**Cost**
Around €8-10 per person for 90 minutes. Payment is handled through Playtomic - you'll need a free account set up before joining.

**What to bring**
Your own racket, water, and sports shoes. Tennis balls are coordinated among players.

**How to join**
RSVP here on Meetup, then join our WhatsApp group at https://keepcalm.fit/meetup/tennis - this is where session day, time, and venue are shared, and you must be in the group before you can come to a session. Events are posted in advance; mark yourself as Going and drop your level in the comments, and you'll be tagged in the court booking post once it's confirmed.
