So just for clarification, "Quel garçon à jeté cette balle?" and "Qui à jeté cette balle?"
both are valid correct? It's just that "quel" requires the noun, and qui doesn't.

Yes, Gio, that's correct. "Quel" would be translated as "which" and, just as in English, requires a noun to follow. "Qui" is "who" which can stand without a noun.
Quel garçon a jeté cette balle. -- Which boy threw this ball?
Qui a jeté cette balle. -- Who threw this ball?
-- Chris (not a native speaker).
