Yeah... that's enough for static flying... but it depends also on what's around it. If you have buildings or trees obstructing the wind... that's not
a good situation... you can have a lot of turbulence and it's not fun anymore.

Yes a soccer field is big enough to get a ride.
Trick is .... Wind flows like water. It will be terrible for flying for about TEN times the distance downwind as an object upwind is high.
