1. er, as I recall
it's roughly similar to hackey sack.

although I once saw it in hackensack, so that could be causing me problems.

10. Northzax's right.
It uses rattan ball, similar to hackey sack rules. :D

2. Is it that thing where they kick around the wicker ball?
In Thailand they call it "takraw."

4. It's Like Basketball... Only They Use A Sideways Basket
... and in ancient times, players have been known to DIE playing the game because it is so brutal.

5. Can't fool me. It's agra kapes spelled backwards.
Agra Kapes, also known locally as Agri-Capes, is "fighting" row crops using a red matador's cape.
One might wave one's cape in front of a row of corn while shouting "HOLA! MAIZE! COME FOR ME! YOU ARE ALL EARS AND NO CAJONES!"
or something like that
