Event[]
The official Steeplechase pictogram for Marble League 2021, designed by JMR.
In the Steeplechase, 4 marbles from each team must traverse a sand track with barriers they must jump over. The objective is to cross the finish line in the fastest possible time, without knocking any sticks on the barriers over. Teams receive 1 penalty per stick knocked over/DNF. A team's final result is the sum of their fastest 3 times, plus 1 second per penalty. The team with the lowest result wins.

Trivia[]
- A production error was made in timing and scoring, which made an effect on the results and overall standings.
- Ⅰ The Savage Speeders' first marble to cross the line was timed at 07.06, while the on-screen timer revealed the actual time should have been 06.06. This error meant that the team's actual final result was 24.14, enough to pass the Gliding Glaciers for 12th in the event results.
- Ⅱ Following the discovery of the error, the JMA decided to leave the standings intact until the conclusion of Marble League 2021[1]. After which, 1 point would be added to the Savage Speeders' total, and 1 point would be deducted from the Gliding Glaciers' total. This change was made as there were future events that involved seeding based off overall standings, which would be affected by the change. The standings here have been updated to already include the change.
- After this event, the Green Ducks became the first team to get three consecutive silver medals.
