Hampshire will be heading back to familiar grounds in the spring when they travel to Barbados for a pre-season tour.
The two-week training camp marks the fifth consecutive time the club has travelled across the Atlantic to prepare for a new campaign.
Hampshire, who were crowned champions of LV= County Championship Division Two last season, will prepare for the top flight with games against Warwickshire, Nottinghamshire, Barbados and the University of the West Indies in a hotly-contested Twenty20 competition, alongside several warm-up matches.

Hampshire's first season back in Division One since 2011 begins on Sunday 12 April when they take on Sussex at the Ageas Bowl.
Hampshire director of cricket Giles White said: “The conditions in the Caribbean are perfect to enable us to prepare in the best possible way for what is a big season for the club.
"We are always hugely thankful of the warm reception we receive when we go to Barbados so it’s great for us to go back."
