The Tier 3 Program is the third level of competitive swimming within the Summerside Dolphin Swim Club and runs September to mid June. Swimmers entering this program have completed the "BRONZE" level on the Summerside Dolphin Performance Chart or have previous experience in competitive swimming.

The main objectives for this program are achieving personal best times, achieving regional championship meet standards (E.g. NB "A" standards, East Coast standards, etc.) and becoming comfortable with all aspects of competitive swimming (e.g. all four strokes, starts off the blocks, turns, racing, etc.). These swimmers compete at all Island meets and will attend off Island invitational and regional championship meets. At this level of swimming it is important for the swimmers to realize the importance of coming to all practices a week as the training load becomes more demanding. By the end of the season these swimmers will try to achieve the "SILVER” or "GOLD" level on the Summerside Dolphin Performance Chart.
