Since birth, Joy and Miriam were left at the gate of an orphanage (孤儿院). For the disabled sisters, who both have spina bifida (脊柱裂), it may have seemed that all hopes were lost at that time. But after being adopted by a British couple, they have become two of the country's most promising wheelchair basketball stars.

In 2005, the Haizes adopted them. Then, they moved to the UK

when Joy was six and Miriam was seven. The girls discovered the

wheelchair basketball through a chance conversation, which Mr.

Haize had with a friend in 2011. They hadn't known wheelchair sports before, but Joy was hooked from the beginning.

While Miriam loved the sport, it took her a little longer to become a serious athlete. “I used to have really low self­respect，” she said. “It's only when Joy got into the Under 25s European Championships in 2013 that I started to take basketball seriously. It gave me a path to follow.” Miriam was then chosen to play at both regional trials and the Sainsbury's School Games in 2014. Of course, she earned herself a place at the famous GB Futures training camp. “GB Futures helped me a lot. It helped me take basketball to another level and learn more about the game and its history. It also helped me be more independent，” said Miriam. Meanwhile, Joy is currently the youngest player on the GB women's team —but she is making her mark on the international stage, having represented Great Britain in tournaments (锦标赛) all over the world.

The teenagers are now eager to encourage others to explore the world of wheelchair sports. “You should have confidence in yourself. That's the one thing to help you succeed. Having setbacks helped me grow into a person and player. No matter what people said to us, we just tried our best，” said the girls.
