NWC is a 5 v 5 NFL FLAG non-contact version of flag football. Each roster may hold 10 players and a maximum of two coaches.
All players on a team must be born in the birth year or younger for the division you are interested in.
For example, for a team to be eligible for 10U, all the players must be born in 2013 or younger for that team to be eligible for 10U. Even if you have 1 player born in 2013, that team would not be eligible for 10U TOURNAMENT PLAY.
