So they would be more prepared for when it was their time to actually become a knight. They would have to start off as a page for seven years, then seven years as a squire before becoming a knight. Just think, if you were a king/queen, would you rather have a knight trained 14 years to protect your kingdom, or have them trained 5 or less?
