🧠 FROM DESK TO COURT
Research life often means long hours of writing, reading, and working behind a screen. We’ll kick off with a short presentation on physical activity, sedentary work and why making time for movement matters, before putting it into practice on the padel court. WHO guidance emphasizes reducing sedentary time and replacing it with physical activity (like padel?).
🎾 PADEL AMERICANO
Never played before? No problem! We’ll start with time to get familiar with the racket, court and basic strokes.
We’ll then play an Americano tournament, where partners and opponents are mixed throughout, making it a great way to play, meet and network with different people.
All levels are welcome!
