Code:
#based only on your data sample - one way to do it

awk ' BEGIN{ok=0}
     {
        if($2 == "Name")
        {
            if($1=="17-05-25")
            {
                ok=1
            }
            else
            {
                 ok=0
            }
        }         

        ok==1 {print}
 
    } ' infile > outfile

I deliberately did not use more succinct ways of doing this so you can easily see the logic. The flag can change only when the input line has the string "Name" in it.
