An apparatus and method for the creation and covering of holes on golf greens and the like is disclosed, designed as a system and method by which holes in natural or synthetic playing surfaces can be created and then covered when not in use. The present invention comprises an hollow, cylindrical insert. One end of the insert is open. Holes are located on the other end to allow water to pass out of the insert. The insert is placed permanently into the ground at a location where a hole is desired by pressing the insert into a hole created by a standard auger tool. A pointed protrusion keeps the insert from rotating once the insert is placed in the ground. The insert is designed to be used as a golf cup on a green or with stanchion supports for other sporting equipment that may be used with soccer, baseball, football, and the like. A flat, circular cap screws into the top of the insert. The cap has a covering of synthetic grass which matches the surrounding surface area. The cap is screwed onto and off of the insert via cap rotation means.
