A lining system providing means of establishing visual demarcation lines for sports or other uses such as being played or other use to be used as demarcations for such things as base lines, foul lines, mid-field, goal boxes, penalty boxes, goal lines, yardage markers, parking spaces and other demarcations for playing fields or courts for sports such as baseball, softball, kickball, badminton, volleyball, bocce, croquet, football, flag football, flickerball, soccer, rugby, field hockey, ultimate frisbee, lacrosse or temporary parking lots. The preferred embodiment of the invention consists of a thin woven polymer-based material or film that is positioned where appropriate on the ground or floor. The polymer-based material is not adversely affected by moisture or sunlight making it suitable for outdoor use and is woven for added strength and durability. The material is of adequate width to be easily viewable, typically 1 inch to 4 inches, and comes on a roll or a reel for easy transportation and storage. A more permanent installation is for users that intend on leaving the material in place indefinitely in a semi-permanent installation. Either desired embodiment can be used to make lines and line segments to mark demarcation elements such as sidelines, goal lines, penalty boxes, yard markers, parking spaces or other elements desired by the user.
