Ms Ball, a 21-year-old nursing student, endured interviews and judging in front of a three-person panel on Saturday morning, alongside 15 other competitors.
Crowned Wagga Showgirl in October, Ms Ball proceeded to the Zone 7 final against showgirls from The Rock, Junee, Temora, Leeton, Ardlethan, Barmedman, Finley, Henty, Holbrook, Ungarie, West Wyalong, Lake Cargellico, Cootamundra, Ariah Park and Hilston.
“It’s been such a learning experience,” she said.
“It’s been great to meet them all.”
Ms Ball hopes work at the new Wagga Rural Referral Hospital when she graduates at the end of the year, with long-term plans to transition into midwifery.
