A ground anchoring system that prevents lateral movement of an anchoring post. The system is characterized by an anchor plate removably mounted upon a cylindrical anchoring post. Opposing channels are formed on the post and extend along the longitudinal axis of the post to a stop located within each of the respective channels. The anchor plate includes first, a second, and a third portion. The first and third portions project from the plate in a direction opposite to the second portion to form two generally diamond shaped apertures in the anchor plate when viewed along its longitudinal axis. The diamond shaped apertures are sized to allow the post to pass through when the longitudinal axis of the post is in line with the longitudinal axis of the plate. The second and third portions of the plate include tabs to fit within the channels and engage the stops of the post. In an alternative embodiment of the system, the anchor plate is formed with a pair of flanges at the side edges which project from the plate in opposing directions.
