Ball is a lunar impact crater that is located in the rugged southern highlands of the Moon. It was named after British astronomer William Ball. The formation is circular and symmetrical, and has received little significant wear. The interior is rough-surfaced, curving downward toward the relatively wide central peak at the midpoint. The crater is situated on the rim of the more sizable Deslandres, to the east of the crater Lexell, and southewest of Gauricus. To the north is Sasserides, and further to the north-northwest is the prominent ray crater Tycho.

By convention these features are identified on lunar maps by placing the letter on the side of the crater midpoint that is closest to Ball.
