Zionist gymnastics and sports organization. The establishment at the end of the nineteenth century of a national Jewish gymnastic society in Europe can be explained as a reaction to mounting nationalism across the continent, with concomitant exclusion of minorities and heightened antisemitism. The Slavic Sokol (Hawk) gymnastics movement, founded in Prague in 1862, stood as a successful East European model to evoke national spirit on the athletic field.
