Week two in the Soccer Academy House began on Monday morning with further rigorous football training and drills which saw the teammates being taken through other dynamics of soccer training to improve their fitness, stamina, endurance, among other aspects of soccer training.

The training was held at the El-wak Sports Stadium and sometimes at the beach.

To further enhance their overall physical and mental fitness, the teammates were engaged in some fitness exercises at the Pippa's Gym at Ridge as well as some swimming lessons at the Tesano Sports Club in Accra.

The teammates also took up the challenge of doing their own presentation using the Power Point Application Software to share their dreams and expectations for the future, thus, giving them the opportunity to enhance their IT skills.

As characteristic of the show, the teammates experienced the Culture Day which saw their Togolese teammates treating them to Togolese Culture and its diverse components including food, dance, music, folklore and history.

To show their appreciation to sponsors of the show, the teammates paid visits to some sponsors including Aquafresh Ghana Ltd, producers of Kalyppo Fruit Juice, the official beverage sponsors of the show.

The visit also gave them the occasion to meet with some high profile officials of the company and also learn about the wide range of products the company produces as well as the processes that go into their production.

The teammates also had the privilege of acquainting themselves with the operations of Printex Ghana Ltd, manufacturers of Printex brand of fabrics, as they were taken through the various phases of the company's textile production. The teammates were once again live on TV in the Weekday Interactive Show on Metro TV, sharing with their fans other new experiences and lessons they have learnt both in and out of the house.

The week ended on a note of fun and entertainment for the teammates with shout-out at the Foodies restaurant located at Osu.
