The Griffons, currently referred to as the Tasol Solar Griffons for sponsorship reasons[1], are a South African rugby union team that participates in the annual Currie Cup tournament. They play out of Welkom at North West Stadium, and draw players from roughly the eastern third of Free State Province (the remainder of the province comprises the territory of the Free State Cheetahs).
Players from the Griffons and Free State Cheetahs are eligible for selection to the Vodacom Cheetahs Super Rugby franchise.
