Their number rose significantly after the First World War when the newly independent Czechoslovakian Orel became a member of the Catholic physical education union %E2%80%93 UIOCEP. The members of this organization were all around the world. The number of foreign contacts it had established was also on the increase. The first international physical educational festival%2C which helped Czechoslovak Orel with its development%2C was organized in Brno in 1922.
