EXETER – At groundbreaking ceremonies at the site of the new
Exeter High School, unbeknownst to longtime Exeter football coach
and athletic director, Bill Ball,
the Exeter Region Cooperative School Board names the new athletic
stadium in his honor – William D. Ball
Stadium.
Ball is in his 26th season of teaching and coaching at
Exeter and has been the head coach of the Blue Hawks for the past 11
years and athletic director for the past 5 years. The honor was
given for his extraordinary leadership, both on and off the field,
because he reflects the values of the community and because he is an
outstanding example for the young people. He is a man whose
priorities are faith, family, friends, integrity, excellence and,
most of all, commitment to the young people of Exeter. His life is
considered by many to be a role model for all students.
