Academic and passionate cricket lover

Sainsbury also worked in Moore Theological College, serving on the academic board and the scholarships committee of the college. The principal, Dr Mark Thompson, remarked, “Her contribution in the Academic Board and as an adviser on curriculum review and other academic matters has been invaluable ... This [her death] is a very sad loss for the college as well as her church, family and friends.”
In 1997, Sainsbury joined the Company of Cricket Scribes, inaugurated by Stephen Gibbs and Alfred James in Sydney in 1992, and brought fresh ideas in discussion with invited guests John Benaud, Tony Cozier, Kerry O’Keeffe, Harsha Bhogle, Jim Maxwell, Darrel Hair and David Frith, among others.
Her research interests in pharmacy involved using sociocultural theory as a framework for explaining the ways in which individuals change as they learn, particularly in the context of university education. Her PhD thesis in Pharmacy explored the processes and outcomes of learning of first year Pharmacy students and she developed a model of learning centred on active participation and development of discourse skills.
Sainsbury was also interested in understanding how an appreciation of the ways in which adults learn can be harnessed to promote enhanced patient care by pharmacists in collaboration with other healthcare professionals.
On her death, emeritus faculty member and Academic Dean Dr Colin Bale said, “The sport was a passion for her. She was an accredited umpire and latterly worked as a ground announcer… She was a person who loved the Lord Jesus and her hope was in Him. I am thankful for this dear sister in Christ.”
Famous cricket historian Dr Richard Cashman added, “Erica provided comprehensive statistical information to The Oxford Companion to Australian Cricket, providing figures for the biographies of women cricketers. She also provided stats to the book Wicket Women.
“She was very professional in all that she did and had a good sense of humour. I had no idea that she had such a close involvement with the Anglican Church but she never talked much about herself, being modest and self-effacing. A great loss to the cricket community.”
Those who knew Erica Sainsbury describe her as a wonderful, kind, intelligent and caring person. She not only enriched women’s cricket she also changed the lives of many with her career as an educator. As former Australian Test cricketer and current cricket commentator Mel Jones summed up, “In every way Erica was a really lovely woman.”
Erica is survived by her brother Michael, sister-in-law Anna and niece Nikki. Her parents, Kevin and Noela, pre-deceased her.
