Answer 1

Try this:

ArrayList<Integer> list = new ArrayList<Integer>();
list.add(..);
list.add(..);
list.add(..);
list.add(..);
list.add(..);
list.add(..);
int[][] a = new int[list.size()][list.size()];
    for(int i =0; i < list.size(); i++){
      for(int j =0; j <list.size(); j++){
        a[i][j]= list.get(j +( list.size() * i));
      }
  }

Answer 2

public static String[][] convertListIntoArrayObj(List<TeamMenuSelected> possibilities) {
    int numberOfColums = 2;
    int numberOfRows = possibilities.size();
    String[][] values = new String[numberOfRows][numberOfColums];

    for(int x=0; x<possibilities.size(); x++) {
        TeamMenuSelected item = possibilities.get(x);
        values[x][0] = item.getTeamName();
        values[x][1] = item.getTeamCuisine();
    }

    return values;
}
