Ball said his players were excited to be given the chance to play at one of the premier cricket grounds in the country.
Riverina will be chasing its first championship title since 2003 when it takes on hot favourites Newcastle.
"Playing at Bradman Oval will be special as there's only a handful of matches played there each year," Ball said.
"It's a privilege for all of us.
"It's a special game for Riverina and will be a great experience for everyone involved."
Ball said Riverina would go into the clash full of confidence.
"If we play like we played in Goulburn in November, I don't care who we play as we will beat anyone," he said.
"Newcastle has won four of the past six titles so they are as tough as it gets.
"We were underdogs against ACT and Illawarra too though."
