The given question is about a diagram representing different groups of players (cricketers, football players, and hockey players) and the relationships between them. The question asks us to identify which statement is not correct.

Option 1 states that every hockey player plays football. This means that the entire group of hockey players is included within the group of football players. Since the diagram shows a separate area for hockey players, which is disjoint from the area for football players, this statement is incorrect.

Option 2 states that every cricket player plays either football or hockey. The question does not provide any information about the relationship between cricket players and the other two sports. Therefore, this statement cannot be regarded as correct or incorrect based on the given information.

Option 3 states that some hockey players play both cricket and football. The diagram does not provide any overlapping area between hockey players, cricket players, and football players. Therefore, there is no evidence to support or refute this statement.

Option 4 states that there are some football players who play neither cricket nor hockey. The diagram does not explicitly show any football players who are not involved in cricket or hockey. Therefore, this statement is incorrect as there is no evidence to support it.

In conclusion, the statement that is not correct based on the given
