SUNS coach Guy McKenna says training in Arizona is almost certain to become a regular fixture in the Suns' pre-season plans each year.
A big advocate of training at high altitude, McKenna said he could find little reason why the club would deviate from their current pre-season trip to Flagstaff in the near future.
"There is plenty of evidence out there that suggests (Flagstaff) is clearly one of the best venues to go to for a sporting camp," McKenna said.
"It ticks a lot of the boxes and as far as the town itself is concerned there isn't a lot of distractions for the blokes.
"That's what you want and you want the blokes to be focussing on training hard for two weeks."
McKenna said the only reason to change destination would be if the players became stale.
"In five or six years of us coming here, David Swallow or Dion Prestia and those boys who have been here for a while may need a change," he said.
"I'm sure we will accommodate them but I reckon we will always come back to Flagstaff."
Apart from the physical gains of training at high altitude, McKenna said the benefits from travelling overseas were endless.
"I was speaking to a few of the corporates who had been on the camp the previous year as well and they commented on how close the group was this year," McKenna said.
"It's amazing the transformation in 12 months and its really encouraging going into next season.
"The more times we can be isolated and learn to get on with each other and understand each others' mental and physical capabilities, then the better we will be.
"Clearly that is what we have seen."
The Suns return home on Wednesday.
