Since its very beginning, the Gyulai Istv\u00e1n Memorial – Hungarian Athletics Grand Prix has been paying tribute to the memory of Dr. Bojidar Spiriev.<\/strong><\/p>\n

It was almost forty years ago when the inventor of the official IAAF Scoring Tables developed a scoring table that has become widespread in the whole world since then, and it serves as a basis for the IAAF World Rankings. His precise and innovative work of a lifetime was acknowledged in the whole world. In civil life he was a world-famous hydrogeological engineer, whose incredible expertise in athletics was combined with exceptional humbleness and kindness. Dr. Bojidar Spiriev passed away in 2010.<\/p>\n

Every year the athlete with the best result by the IAAF Scoring Tables receives the Dr. Bojidar Spiriev trophy in the Gyulai Istv\u00e1n Memorial – Hungarian Athletics Grand Prix. The trophy is handed over by Attila Spiriev, son of Dr. Bojidar Spiriev and sports director of the Gyulai Istv\u00e1n Memorial – Hungarian Athletics Grand Prix.<\/p>\n
