Make a ball go round like a sphere (6)

I believe the answer is:

global

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'round like a sphere' is the definition.
I can't judge whether this defines the answer.

'make a ball go' is the wordplay.
'make' indicates anagramming the letters.
'ball'+'go'='ballgo'
'ballgo' anagrammed gives 'GLOBAL'.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for global that I've seen before include "Sphere-shaped" , "Comprehensive" , "everywhere" , "Like big village" , "Going round the world" .)

I've seen this clue in The Globe and Mail.
