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.
This question relates to:French lesson "Questions: Quel, quels, quelle, quelles = Which / what ?"

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).
