Claim 0:
1. A sports field marking assembly comprising:
a marker anchoring device having an injection body with a proximal end, with a distal end, a translation channel spanning from the proximal end of the injection body to the distal end of the injection body, defining a marker insertion aperture, and defining a marker discharge opening thereon spatially coupled to the marker insertion aperture and the translation channel, having a handle translatably coupled to the injection body and with a piston disposed within and operably configured to slide within the translation channel;
a plurality of field markers each having a marker body defining an insertion tip of a tapered configuration, configured to be inserted within the marker insertion aperture, operably configured to be discharged through the marker discharge opening, with a head, and having at least one cantilevered flexible bristle extending from the marker body, the plurality of field markers having an insertion position along a marker translation path with the insertion tip disposed proximal to the distal end of the injection body and the head disposed in the translation channel and configured for contact by the piston of the handle;
a tape canister coupled to the injection body and disposed proximal to the distal end of the injection body, the tape canister having a measuring tape disposed therein and operably configured to extend and retract with respect to the tape canister;
an alignment field marker having a tab rotatably coupled to the alignment field marker and operably configured to rotate 360° thereon, the tab defining a tab opening configured to receive the measuring tape;
a plurality of aligners each having a bottom face, a top face, a center aperture, a plurality of guide post pairs operably configured to be disposed within the center aperture and selectively movable to a vertical position with respect to the top face.
