Hi Tim,
The best remedy for this is to serve the ball low and close to the net. As you develop your game you will find this a really useful serve. At the top level most players will serve this type of serve. It will take some time to master now but if you do, you will have a serve that is effective as you improve your game.
Start by putting a target on the table about 30cm from the net. Try to hit the target and still keep the ball just skimming over the net. Practice this till the tournament and see if you can stop him from attacking you.
