Have the ball face the camera in the scene editor. Double-click the object, set it to Facing Other (camera01 or whatever the camera's name is). The ball can be a spherical one (if you want spherical lighting on it) or just a texture on a plane with a non-lighting style material.

I forgot you could have objects set to face other objects. Thanks.
