Traditional dancers greeted Kenya's winning sevens rugby team when they landed at Jomo Kenyatta International Airport in Nairobi, as the country celebrated their first win of the World Series.
The dancers - some donning the Kenyan flag - lined up on both sides of a red carpet as the players stepped off a flight from Singapore, where they defeated Fiji 30-7 in the final on Sunday.
Speaking at the airport on Tuesday (Wednesday AEST), captain Andrew Amonde said his side couldn't fly under the radar at sevens tournaments anymore.
"I know it is going to be a difficult journey ahead because every team is going to be on to us, we have just to focus as a team again and get everything right again," said Amonde.
The result adds Kenya to the list of teams in the running to win the inaugural Olympics tournament in Rio later this year.
