Marcel Claret (born 1910) was a French hockey player who played for the French National Team at the World Championships on three occasions (1934, 1935, and 1950).

He played club hockey for Stade Français and Chamonix HC. The Claret family were well-known figures in Chamonix winter sports. Marcel's brothers Pierre and Jean Claret also played for the national team.

Claret spent time in Nazi captivity during World War II. The Marcel Claret Trophy, named in his honor, has been given to the most sportsmanlike team in the Ligue Magnus since 1981.

He served as the president of Chamonix HC from 1945-1970, and was still an active player during the early days of his tenure. The Claret family are honored members of the French Hockey Hall of Fame.
