Club career

Robinson joined Bristol from Plymouth Albion in the summer of 2005 and capped his debut in the Guinness Premiership by scoring a try against his former academy team Bath on the opening weekend of the 2005/06 season.

Robinson signed a new two-year contract with Bristol during the 2006/07 season. He went on to represent the Barbarians in 2006 and 2007.

Robinson missed a number of games in October and November 2009 with a broken nose sustained in a training session in October.

Robinson signed another two-year contract extension with Bristol in March 2009. However, he signed for Leicester Tigers in June 2010, following Bristol's loss to Exeter in the Championship final.[2] After being allowed to leave Leicester Tigers he joined London Wasps on a short-term deal.[3] After retiring, Lee started in self-employment providing removal services, initially in conjunction with estate agents and directly to clients [4]. In 2017, Lee began a new business venture in commercial & domestic removals and storage, growing the team and serving customers throughout Leicestershire and the Midlands.[5].
