Though Sant Gabriel went out in the quarter-finals of the 2011 Copa de la Reina de Fútbol, Baudet's hat-trick in the first round and a quarter-final goal meant she was the joint-top scorer of the tournament.

Barcelona (2014–16)

In May 2014, Baudet and Sant Gabriel teammate Sandra Hernández were signed to the dominant Barcelona. ^[3] Baudet made her first appearance for Barcelona on 17 May 2014, playing for her new club in two matches of the 2014 Copa de la Reina – which they won – at the end of the 2013–14 season. ^[4]

In the 2017-18 season, in which Espanyol finished one place above relegation, Baudet was their joint-top scorer (with Elisa del Estal). On matchday 18, Baudet was named the league's player of the week. ^[10]

She remained with the team during their fight to gain promotion back to the top flight ^[11] before leaving upon the expiry of her contract in July 2023, while still captain. ^[12]

Levante Las Planas/Badalona (2023–25)
