ForeFront Holdings has hired Glen Clem to fill the newly-created position of director of corporate, tournament and Internet sales, according to Chief Executive Officer Mike Hedge. Clem will be responsible for executing business development initiatives within these distribution channels while managing the company’s sales and support teams.

Clem was formerly vice president of sales with Burton Golf, which was acquired by ForeFront in September.

“One of the benefits of acquiring Burton was the people they already had in place,” said Hedge. “Glen is a very talented sales executive and has demonstrated that with Burton over the last 10 years. Bringing him onto the ForeFront team is a great addition as we continue to expand our distribution channels.”

Prior to joining Burton Golf in 1996, Clem was a PGA member and golf professional with various golf clubs and resorts in the Southeast including Kiva Dunes Golf Club in Gulf Shores, Ala. and Wachesaw Plantation Club in Murrells Inlet, S.C. He also played four seasons of professional basketball in the Continental Basketball Association and the United States Basketball League. Clem earned a bachelor’s degree in economics with a minor in business administration from Vanderbilt University.
