In 1991–92, the first season of England's national women's league structure, Ball scored 23 goals as
Arsenal pipped Abbeydale to promotion into the
National Division. She also headed the winner in the inaugural
Premier League Cup final in May 1992, as Arsenal beat
Millwall Lionesses 1–0. The following season Arsenal won a domestic treble. Ball scored in every round of the
WFA Cup, and her headed goal in the
3–0 final win over
Doncaster Belles was the 38th of a prolific campaign. In April 1995, Ball, by then reduced to bit-part status, came on for the final two minutes of Arsenal's 3–2
FA Women's Cup final win over
Liverpool Ladies. In 1995–1996 Ball played for
Wembley Ladies – and won a last minute penalty kick as Wembley ultimately beat Doncaster Belles in the Premier League Cup final on 10 March 1996. Ball featured for Wembley in the following season's 1–0 FA Women's Cup final defeat to Millwall Lionesses. She emerged from retirement to do so, aged 35, while working as an
RAF stewardess. ==International career==
