The Tier 4 Program is the forth level of competitive swimming within the Summerside Dolphin Swim Club and runs September to July. Swimmers entering this program have completed the "GOLD" level on the Summerside Dolphin Performance Chart or have previous experience in competitive swimming.

Swimmers in this program have an increased training commitment and dry land training is introduced, in addition to the water practices. The main objectives for this program are developing racing techniques and strategies, achieving personal best times, and achieving regional championship meet standards. Swim meets become more important in this training program and swimmers will have significant travel off Island to larger regional swim meets and swim meets outside of the Maritimes. By the end of the season these swimmers will try to achieve the "PLATINUM" level, the highest level on the Summerside Dolphin Performance Chart.
