[AI-generated answer — Bot GPT 3.5]

The area of the playing field can be calculated by finding the sum of the areas of the original rectangle and the rectangular area that was removed.

Area of original rectangle = length x width
= 10m x 6m
= 60 square meters

Area of removed rectangle = length x width
= (10m - 8m) x (6m - 4m)
= 2m x 2m
= 4 square meters

Area of playing field = Area of original rectangle - Area of removed rectangle
= 60 square meters - 4 square meters
= 56 square meters

Therefore, the area of the playing field is 56 square meters.
