SACS had, meanwhile, <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/ssschoolsplus.co.za\/dramatic-nite-series-action-as-sacs-and-bosch-deliver-a-spectacular-show\/\">forced a 10-10 draw with high-flying Rondebosch Boys&#8217; High<\/a> <\/strong>in their last outing.<\/p>\n<p>Both sides had a shot at qualifying for the semifinals, but they also needed other results to go their way.<\/p>\n<p>From the start, Reddam was on fire and they flew off the blocks, dominating the early exchanges.<\/p>\n<p>Coach <strong>Nick Tinkler&#8217;<\/strong>s charges rushed to a 3-0 lead in the opening three minutes, courtesy of a quick hat-trick from Adam Brown.<\/p>\n<p>Those quick goals sparked his brother, Blake, into life, and he quickly joined the scoring party with a brace of his own.<\/p>\n<p>After the first chukka, Reddam enjoyed an eye-opening 5-1 lead, with <strong>Jandro Rojo-Roos<\/strong> finding the only reply for SACS.<\/p>\n<p>With three full chukkas left, one might&#8217;ve given SACS the benefit of the doubt, and they appeared to believe they had a comeback in them.\u00a0However, that belief and hope were quickly shut down by Reddam\u2019s enthusiastic defence and the acrobatic shot-stopping of goalkeeper <strong>Guy Hart<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>While the hosts continued to misfire, Reddam found the back of the net with ease. Blake Brown added two more goals to his tally in the second chukka, and his brother followed suit after captain <strong>Jayden Bosman<\/strong> also added his name to the score sheet.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Aidan Turrell<\/strong> struck twice for SACS, but they found themselves in a big hole, trailing Reddam 3-9 at the break.<\/p>\n<p>A big win beckoned for the visitors if they could maintain control in the second half and see out the match.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_63399\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-63399\" style=\"width: 400px\" class=\"wp-caption alignright\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-63399\" src=\"https:\/\/ssschoolsplus.co.za\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/Struan-Valentina-Reddam-400x267.jpeg\" alt=\"Reddam House Constantia's Struan Valentine in action for his team during round 1 of the SACS Nite Series.
