Fifteen teams participated in the 2019 Norwegian J/70 Sailing League, with the season ending finale taking place in Trondhjems, Norway. The first three events took place in Oslo, Hanko and Arendal. Trondhjems Sailing Association hosted the finale. The Trondhjems winners were the Bordal family of Per Christian, Marie, Herman, and Henrik sailing for Moss Seilforening. Åsgårdstrand Seilforening managed to survive the fourth and final regatta of the 2019 League to take the overall title. It was a close battle in the finale, as Åsgårdstrand could not finish worse than fourth, with Tønsberg Seilforening winning the event, as they would lose the tie-breaker based on first places. By winning the last race, Åsgårdstrand secured fourth place for the regatta and the season championship. Tønsberg ended up in third place for the regatta and, consequently, earned the silver overall. Then, BI Athletics Seiling finished fifth in the regatta, taking third overall. However, another team stole the show in Trondheim. For Moss Seilforening, four Bordal family members represented the club: father Per Christian Bordal, Secretary General of the Norwegian Sailing Association, and his children Marie, Henrik and Herman Bordal. By winning the final event, Moss Seilforening qualified for the elite series again in 2020. For more Norwegian J/70 Sailing League information, visit http://www.seilsportsliga.no/index.php/nb-no/.
