My understanding is that most professional sports are technically open to all genders, they just don't hire female athletes generally.

I looked at the top four professional sports organizations in America: the NHL, NFL, MLB, and the NBA.

None of them prohibit women from playing. No woman has ever been drafted in the MLB or NFL, but the NBA did draft one woman who didnt end up playing, and the NHL had one woman play a preseason game.

Edit: did you mean an exclusive league rather than an inclusive one?
