In the autumn of 1914, efforts to find a stable reserve of human resources necessary for conducting the war led the Austro-Hungarian authorities to initiate the preparation of youths to fulfil their future obligations towards the motherland. PE in schools underwent a transformation and military training for youths was organised not only in schools but also through various associations. Despite a whole series of problems, the military preparation of youths continued almost till the end of the war.
