His latest top performance saw him lead Rwanda's beach volleyball to qualify for the FIVB Beach volleyball world championships, which runs from June 28 to July 7 in Hamburg, Germany.

Rwanda finished second in the men's and third in the women's category. The tiny east African state is the only African country out of six that will have two men's and women's teams in the competition.

"I am proud of my players because Rwanda is the only country that qualified two teams for the FIVB Beach Volleyball World Championship 2019," said Bitok. "I'm proud of my two teams for making history in Rwanda."

Bitok also reinvigorated Rwanda senior men's and women's teams to finish fourth at the 2011 (Mozambique) and 2017 (Congo Brazzaville) Africa Games.

"Congratulations to the beach volleyball teams for concluding my long journey in Rwanda with silver and bronze medals in the 2019 African championships and FIVB Beach Volleyball world championships qualifiers. There is big history to tell and share with others," said Bitok.
