Portrayed By

Buddy Handleson

Newton "Newt" Van Der Rohe is a team member on The Bulldogs football team on the series, Bella and the Bulldogs.

He is portrayed by Buddy Handleson.

Personality

Newt, as his name suggests, isn't very big. Why did he join the Bulldogs? Well, his dad made him do it. But he makes up for his lack of brawn with a brain. Because he's a people pleaser at heart, Newt does not like to rock the boat. Newt is the geek of the show. He's loyal to his boys, but he recognizes Bella's talent... But don't tell anyone he said that.

History

Season 1

Newbie QB

That's Some Gossip, Girl

Pretty in Stink

That's My Tri-Five!

  • Bella thinks that Newt contacting Sophie is weird and wants to talk about it (after he, Sawyer and Troy help her with finding out why Sophie and Pepper are lying).

A Good Bye Week

  • While Molfing he admits that he's frustrated that Sophie doesn't like him.
    • "Why doesn't Sophie like me!" he shouts while hitting the melon.
    • Molfing is a combination of melons and golfing. The players replace the golf ball with a melon.
    • In this game, you shout something that makes you upset while hitting the melon.
  • Even though Sophie's away, he still thinks that her not replying is a way of playing hard to get; though he is well aware that she doesn't like him, he really does like her.

Appearance

Newt has an adorable baby face and big baby blue eyes. He's not very tall, and his style is really casual and laid-back, similar to Troy's.

Relationships

Bella Dawson

Bella is one of his team-mates. He thinks of her as a very kind friend and person in general.

Troy

Troy is one of Newt's team-mates and is his best friend. They both disagreed about Bella being on the team (Well, Newt pretended to).

Sawyer Higgins

Sawyer is one of his team-mates and best friends.

Sophie

Newt has a crush on Sophie, but it's one-sided due to the fact that Sophie gets disgusted every time he tries to flirt with her. In Backseat Quarterback when the two get paired as lab partners and she sees the fun side of him, she begins to warm up to him. It is possible she might secretly return his feelings for her.
