A tarea has either 626 or 629 square meters. it slips my mind at the moment. SO check how many meters are in a baseball field, and that will be your answer. But I must say, nearly every pueblo has some sort of field. Maybe fixing one up, cleaning one up or installing dugouts would be the way to go. Go luck with your generous endeavor.

629 sq. mt. , or 6 to the acre, or 15.9 to the hectare

I like the idea of fixing up an existing field.

You'd need about 20 tas for a good field...

Thanks for the advice, but there's no field on that town. But like i said, The land is sold on Tarea if anyone knows how many Tarea it takes.

Check out sportsknowhow.com for dimensions...The square yardage of an infield within the base lines is 2700 square yards. A yard is 1.14 meters. So for the infield, not from second base to the grass is 4.8934tarea. More info on the above link.
