So I was looking into some skating stuff for a friend, and came across the 2005 U.S. Adult Figure Skating Championships:

So my understanding is that "Class" refers to different age groups, i.e. "Class III" refers to age 46-55 for example, and "Masters" refers to the higher skill levels, i.e. Intermediate to Senior.
My question is about what kind of test some of the categories were. For example, there's "Master Novice Ladies Class II" on page 10; is that referring to moves in the field tests, free skate tests, or something else? And without wishing to be indelicate...if it's referring to free skate tests, then would "Master Senior Ladies Class V" really refer to people 66+ years old doing doubles? (It wasn't an actual category of the competition though, just thinking of the possibility.) I was looking to see if there was an actual program with the elements performed which would've answered my question, but only found the final scores (which seem to be on the 6.0 scale) here: https://www.usfigureskating.org/event_details.asp?id=20428 , although current Adult Championships seem to be using the IJS scoring system now.
