Marin County Weekend Schedule: High School Track and Field Action
For families, coaches, and fans in Marin County, this weekend brings a mix of local rivalries and travel meets. The schedule really shows off the depth of North Bay prep talent.
Events will put Marin schools both on the road and in local parks, from Chico to Santa Rosa. Several programs are using the weekend to test lineups and see how deep their rosters go.
Local Marin County Matchups

From the canyon roads around Fairfax to the flats near the San Francisco Bay, Marin coaches have lined up matchups that mix speed, stamina, and strategy. The Terra Linda and Tamalpais programs especially turn out a steady stream of distance runners and sprinters who seem to thrive in the Bay Area’s climate.
Marin Academy and Marin Catholic bring a strong private-school presence to North Bay tracks. That mix keeps things interesting every single weekend.
Out-of-Area Meets and Dominican Programs
- Dominican teams compete in out-of-area meets: the Clay Invitational in Azusa, the Mt. SAC Relays in Walnut, and the Long Beach Invitational (all listed as ongoing events).
- Santa Rosa hosts a Twilight Invitational at 10 a.m..
- San Domenico competes at the Granada Distance Festival in Livermore.
- No events are scheduled beyond these listings.
For Marin County’s track fans, these out-of-area meets are a real chance to see Dominican programs and other Bay Area powerhouses take on bigger stages.
The Clay Invitational in Azusa and the Mt. SAC Relays in Walnut pull in scouts and college recruiters all the time. When there’s buzz around a certain event or distance, families from Marin usually find the trip worth it.
As you plan your weekend, maybe picture how Marin communities will show up—from the terraces of Tamalpais to the bleachers near Oracle Park. Some folks make those cross-county treks to Rohnert Park or Livermore, too.
Families from San Rafael, Mill Valley, Novato, and San Domenico all weave together into this bigger Bay Area sports scene. It’s honestly part of what makes Marin County’s high school sports calendar so appealing.
Watching athletes grit through late-season miles, nail relay handoffs, and surge at the finish, you start to get why these early meets matter. They really do set the tone for league races and whatever comes next.
If you need plans for the weekend, maybe check the local schedules or community boards. North Bay weather can be unpredictable, but Marin’s student-athletes are ready to chase personal bests and keep the sports spirit alive.
Venues stretch from Mill Valley to Larkspur, and from Rohnert Park all the way down to Azusa. There’s a lot happening—just depends where you look.
