[Are you looking just for the syntax or ?]
if (place == 1) {
    medal_color = 'gold';
} else if (place == 2) {
    medal_color = 'silver';
} else if (place == 3) {
    medal_color = 'bronze';
} else {
    medal_color = null;
}

How can I use it in the template .Below is my test template It doest work.

 

<html>

if({!Enrollment__c.AccountOwnerID__c} == '00570000001DdGU')
{
 <p>I am owner</p>
}
else
{
    <p>I am not owner</p>
}
</html>

 

 

then I got an email reply as below

 

 

 

if(00570000001DdGU == '00570000001DdGU') {

I am owner

} else {

I am not owner

}

I don't think we can achieve this way unless we use javascript.... As a part of the solution I would try creating a custom field whose value would be updated to 'I am owner' or 'I am not owner'  based on the required condition (through trigger or workflow) and use this custom field in the e-mail template as merged field.

To be more clear I am using this templates for email alerts in workflows,So I have a template designed with different Images,Signatures  in html for different Account Owners but I need to use a comman template but with selective Images and Signatures depending on Account's Owner.
