Why do I need a tournamentId?

Although the manager doesn't manipulate the tournaments (no CRUD operation on a "tournament" table), you'll need to give a tournamentId to create a stage because you can have multiple stages per tournament.

For instance, you could have:

• A round-robin stage (32 participants)
• A high-tier double elimination stage (16 best participants)
• A low-tier double elimination stage (the rest of the participants)

And thanks to that, the participants in the database can be linked to a specific tournament.

If you don't handle multiple tournaments or if you have a single stage at a time, just choose any number to pass to the manager e.g. 0 or 1.
