At least in the United States, minors cannot be bound by NDAs. There could be some kind of disqualification involved, but then we would get into a hairy mess of refunds, cancelled travel plans, etc. Even then, how would they determine who actually broke into the box? I think it gets too thorny to be worth it.

Come to think of it, what's the deal with teams who host kickoffs in the United States? Kits come to the kickoffs before Christmas. Is there any kind of NDA there? I should probably know this, as the president of a team who is hosting a kickoff...
