In Field Hockey it is mostly to do with the area of the ball you position your stick on and the flicking of the wrist. To practice try and stand side on to the ball with your hands three quarters down the stick and just use your wrists to flick the ball off the ground. Try and use the bottom of the ball as this will gain the most height. It takes a while to get it.
In higher level playing it can be used to get over an opponent's stick or to get a goal passed the goalie.
Actually you can use flicking in many other ways and theres different kind of flicks eg the drag flick or the over head which is an infield flick which is used to pass the ball by flicking it to a team mate that is a fair distance away and you have an opponent blocking you
