Bitok welcomed the move saying he had already handed his training programme to the Kenya Volleyball Federation (KVF).
Volleyball is among contact sports that was suspended by Sports Cabinet Secretary Amina Mohamed from March because of the coronavirus pandemic.
Kenya’s national volleyball teams have been given the green light by the government to start training.
The development is music to the ears of national women’s volleyball team coach Paul Bitok who was worried that the team might fall behind schedule in preparation of next year’s Olympic Games in Tokyo.
