Having won "the Double" of both Danish Cup and Danish football championship titles in 1985, Bordinggaard moved abroad to play for indoor soccer team Wichita Wings in the United States.

In 1988, Bordinggaard moved abroad once more, to play for Panionios FC in Greece. He returned to Denmark in 1989, to play for Vejle Boldklub. In 1991 he returned to Odense BK again, but left the club in order to join Silkeborg IF in 1992. Bordinggaard spent five years at Silkeborg IF, helping the club win the 1995 Danish football championship. Having initially ended his career in 1997, he returned as a player/assistant coach for Vejle BK in the 1999-2000 season.

In 2001, Bordinggaard was appointed manager of Vejle BK. He spent one year with the club, until he was brought in as assistant coach for the Danish national team under manager Morten Olsen in July 2002.
