The ball bounces infinitely many times, in a finite period of time, and then stops! :) You can model this completely, i.e. describe height as a function of time. You can know exactly where the ball is at any particular time, and it follows a continuous curve. So it does make sense as a model, although it is perhaps a bit mind-bending.
